(1) Purpose: To investigate the role of Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT in guiding retreatment stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in prostate cancer (PCa) patients in biochemical recurrence (BCR) after salvage radiotherapy (S-RT). (2) Methods: We retrospectively evaluated PCa patients previously treated with S-RT on the prostate bed and with proven serum prostate antigen (PSA) failure after S-RT. In all patients (pts), Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT was positive in the prostate bed only and guided retreatment SBRT. All retreatments were performed by applying the same radiotherapy protocol (median dose of 18 Gy/3 fractions; IQR 18-21 Gy). The median follow-up was 27 months (range 4-35 months). (3) Results: 38 consecutive patients were considered in this analysis. The overall median PSA level before RT was 1.10 ng/mL (IQR 0.82-2.59). PSA decreased at 3 and 6 months after treatment, with a median value of 0.60 ng/mL (IQR 0.31-0.96; < 0.001) and 0.51 ng/mL (IQR 0.29-1.17; < 0.001), respectively. Overall, biochemical recurrence-free survival (b-RFS) was 15.0 months (95% CI 13-23). Grade-1 toxicity was reported in 31.6% of patients (12/38). (4) Conclusion: These results confirm that Ga-PSMA-11-PET/CT is able to identify the site of recurrence in patients who have failed S-RT, thus supporting the use of metastases-directed radiotherapy as a safe and effective treatment.
(1)目的:探讨镓-PSMA-11 PET/CT在指导挽救性放疗(S-RT)后生化复发(BCR)的前列腺癌(PCa)患者进行再程立体定向体部放疗(SBRT)中的作用。(2)方法:我们回顾性评估了先前在前列腺床接受过S-RT且S-RT后经证实血清前列腺特异性抗原(PSA)失败的PCa患者。在所有患者中,镓-PSMA-11 PET/CT仅在前列腺床呈阳性,并指导了再程SBRT。所有再程治疗均采用相同的放疗方案(中位剂量为18 Gy/3次分割;四分位间距为18 - 21 Gy)。中位随访时间为27个月(范围4 - 35个月)。(3)结果:本分析纳入了38例连续患者。放疗前总体中位PSA水平为1.10 ng/mL(四分位间距0.82 - 2.59)。治疗后3个月和6个月时PSA下降,中位值分别为0.60 ng/mL(四分位间距0.31 - 0.96;P < 0.001)和0.51 ng/mL(四分位间距0.29 - 1.17;P < 0.001)。总体而言,生化无复发生存期(b-RFS)为15.0个月(95%置信区间13 - 23)。31.6%的患者(12/38)报告有1级毒性反应。(4)结论:这些结果证实,镓-PSMA-11-PET/CT能够识别S-RT失败患者的复发部位,从而支持将转移灶定向放疗作为一种安全有效的治疗方法。
