To assess the dosimetric feasibility of a stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) dose escalated protocol, with a simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) and a simultaneous integrated protection (SIP) approach, in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC).
Twenty LAPC lesions, previously treated with SBRT at our Institution, were re-planned. The original prescribed and administered dose was 50/30/25 Gy in five fractions to PTV (tumor-vessel interface [TVI])/PTV (tumor volume)/PTV (overlap area between PTV and planning organs at risk volume [PRV]), respectively. At re-planning, the prescribed dose was escalated up to 60/40/33 Gy in five fractions to PTV/PTV/PTV, respectively. All plans were performed using an inspiration breath hold (IBH) technique and generated with volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT). Well-established and accepted OAR dose constraints were used (D < 33 Gy for luminal OARs and D < 38 Gy for corresponding PRV). The primary end-point was to achieve a median dose equal to the prescription dose for the PTV with D≥ 95% (95% of prescription dose is the minimum dose), and a coverage for PTV and PTV of D≥95%, with minor deviations in OAR dose constraints in < 10% of the plans.
PTV median (± SD) dose/D/conformity index (CI) were 60.54 (± 0.85) Gy/58.96 (± 0.86) Gy/0.99 (± 0.01), respectively; whilst PTV median (± SD) dose/D were 44.51 (± 2.69) Gy/38.44 (± 0.82) Gy, and PTV median (± SD) dose/D were 35.18 (± 1.42) Gy/33.01 (± 0.84) Gy, respectively. With regard to OARs, median (± SD) maximum dose (D) to duodenum/stomach/bowel was 29.31 (± 5.72) Gy/25.29 (± 6.90) Gy/27.03 (± 5.67) Gy, respectively. A minor acceptable deviation was found for a single plan (bowel and duodenum D=34.8 Gy). V38 < 0.5 cc was achieved for all PRV luminal OARs.
In LAPC patients SBRT, with a SIB/SIP dose escalation approach up to 60/40/33 Gy in five fractions to PTV/PTV/PTV, respectively, is dosimetrically feasible with adequate PTVs coverage and respect for OAR dose constraints.
评估立体定向体部放射治疗(SBRT)剂量递增方案(采用同步整合加量(SIB)和同步整合保护(SIP)方法)用于局部晚期胰腺癌(LAPC)患者的剂量学可行性。
对本机构先前接受过SBRT治疗的20例LAPC病灶进行重新计划。原规定及给予的剂量分别为:肿瘤血管界面(TVI)的计划靶体积(PTV)50 Gy分5次、肿瘤体积的PTV 30 Gy分5次、PTV与危及器官计划体积(PRV)重叠区域的PTV 25 Gy分5次。重新计划时,规定剂量分别递增至PTV/PTV/PTV的60 Gy/40 Gy/33 Gy分5次。所有计划均采用吸气屏气(IBH)技术并通过容积调强弧形治疗(VMAT)生成。使用既定且公认的危及器官剂量限制(管腔内危及器官D < 33 Gy,相应PRV的D < 38 Gy)。主要终点是PTV的中位剂量等于处方剂量且D≥95%(95%处方剂量为最小剂量),PTV和PTV的覆盖率D≥95%,且<10%的计划中危及器官剂量限制有微小偏差。
PTV中位(±标准差)剂量/D/适形指数(CI)分别为60.54(±0.85)Gy/58.96(±0.86)Gy/0.99(±0.01);而PTV中位(±标准差)剂量/D为44.51(±2.69)Gy/38.44(±0.82)Gy,PTV中位(±标准差)剂量/D为35.18(±1.42)Gy/33.01(±0.84)Gy。关于危及器官,十二指肠/胃/肠的中位(±标准差)最大剂量(D)分别为29.31(±5.72)Gy/25.29(±6.90)Gy/27.03(±5.67)Gy。在单个计划中发现一个可接受的微小偏差(肠和十二指肠D = 34.8 Gy)。所有PRV管腔内危及器官均实现V38 < 0.5 cc。
在LAPC患者中,SBRT采用SIB/SIP剂量递增方法,分别给予PTV/PTV/PTV的60 Gy/40 Gy/33 Gy分5次,在剂量学上是可行的,PTV覆盖率充足且符合危及器官剂量限制。
