To evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of chemoradiotherapy (CRT) using simultaneous integrated boost-intensity modulated radiotherapy (SIB-IMRT) in locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC) patients.
Between January 2011 and May 2015, 47 LAPC patients received CRT using SIB-IMRT. Prior to SIBIMRT, 37 patients (78.7%) received induction chemotherapy (IC-CRT group) and remaining 10 patients (21.3%) did not received induction chemotherapy (CRT group). During SIB-IMRT, all patients received concomitant chemotherapy, with gemcitabine (n = 37) and capecitabine (n = 10).
At the time of analysis, 45 patients had died and 2 patients remained alive and the median follow-up time was 14.2 months (range, 3.3 to 51.4 months). For all patients, the median times of local progression-free survival (LPFS), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) were 18.1, 10.3, and 14.2 months, respectively. The median time of LPFS between IC-CRT and CRT groups was similar (18.1 months vs. 18.3 months, p = 0.711). IC-CRT group had a higher trend in PFS (10.9 months vs. 4.1 months, p = 0.054) and had significantly higher OS (15.4 months vs. 9.5 months, p = 0.007) than CRT group. In multivariate analysis, the use of induction chemotherapy and tumor response were significant factors associated with OS (p < 0.05, each). During SIBIMRT, toxicity of grade ≥3 was observed in 7 patients (14.9%) in all patients.
CRT using SIB-IMRT is feasible and promising in LAPC patients.
评估同步整合加量调强放疗(SIB-IMRT)在局部晚期胰腺癌(LAPC)患者中进行放化疗(CRT)的有效性和可行性。
2011年1月至2015年5月期间,47例LAPC患者接受了采用SIB-IMRT的CRT。在SIB-IMRT之前,37例患者(78.7%)接受了诱导化疗(IC-CRT组),其余10例患者(21.3%)未接受诱导化疗(CRT组)。在SIB-IMRT期间,所有患者均接受了同步化疗,其中吉西他滨(n = 37)和卡培他滨(n = 10)。
在分析时,45例患者死亡,2例患者存活,中位随访时间为14.2个月(范围3.3至51.4个月)。所有患者的局部无进展生存期(LPFS)、无进展生存期(PFS)和总生存期(OS)的中位时间分别为18.1个月、10.3个月和14.2个月。IC-CRT组和CRT组之间LPFS的中位时间相似(18.1个月对18.3个月,p = 0.711)。IC-CRT组的PFS有更高的趋势(10.9个月对4.1个月,p = 0.054),且OS显著高于CRT组(15.4个月对9.5个月,p = 0.007)。在多变量分析中,诱导化疗的使用和肿瘤反应是与OS相关的显著因素(各p < 0.05)。在SIB-IMRT期间,所有患者中有7例(14.9%)观察到≥3级毒性。
采用SIB-IMRT的CRT在LAPC患者中是可行且有前景的。
