First-line selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) showed promising outcomes in patients with uveal melanoma liver metastases (UMLM). Patient survival depends on liver's disease control. SIRT planning is essential and little is known about dosimetry. We investigated whether Tc-MAA-SPECT/CT dosimetry could predict absorbed doses (AD) evaluated on Y-PET/CT and assess the dose-response relationship in UMLM patients treated with first-line SIRT. This IRB-approved, single-center, retrospective analysis (prospectively collected cohort) included 12 patients (median age 63y, range 43-82). Patients underwent MRI/CT, F-FDG-PET/CT before and 3-6 months post-SIRT, and Y-PET/CT immediately post-SIRT. Thirty-two target lesions were included. AD estimates in tumor and non-tumor liver were obtained from Tc-MAA-SPECT/CT and post-SIRT Y-PET/CT, and assessed with Lin's concordance correlation coefficients (ρ and C), Pearson's coefficient correlation (ρ), and Bland-Altman analyses (mean difference ± standard deviation; 95% limits-of-agreement (LOA)). Influence of tumor characteristics and microsphere type on AD was analyzed. Tumor response was assessed according to size-based, enhancement-based and metabolic response criteria. Mean target lesion AD was 349 Gy (range 46-1586 Gy). Concordance between Tc-MAA-SPECT/CT and Y-PET/CT tumor dosimetry improved upon dose correction for the recovery coefficient (RC) (ρ = 0.725, ρ = 0.703, C = 0.969) with good agreement (mean difference: - 4.93 ± 218.3 Gy, 95%LOA: - 432.8-422.9). Without RC correction, concordance was better for resin microspheres (ρ = 0.85, ρ = 0.998, C = 0.849) and agreement was very good between predictive Tc-MAA-SPECT/CT and Y-PET/CT dosimetry (mean difference: - 4.05 ± 55.9 Gy; 95%LOA: - 113.7-105.6). After RC correction, Tc-MAA-SPECT/CT dosimetry overestimated AD (- 70.9 ± 158.9 Gy; 95%LOA: - 382.3-240.6). For glass microspheres, concordance markedly improved with RC correction (ρ = 0.790, ρ = 0.713, C = 0.903 vs without correction: ρ = 0.395, ρ = 0.244, C = 0.617) and Tc-MAA-SPECT/CT dosimetry underestimated AD (148.9 ± 267.5 Gy; 95%LOA: - 375.4-673.2). For non-tumor liver, concordance was good between Tc-MAA-SPECT/CT and Y-PET/CT dosimetry (ρ = 0.942, ρ = 0.852, C = 0.904). Tc-MAA-SPECT/CT slightly overestimated liver AD for resin (3.4 ± 3.4 Gy) and glass (11.5 ± 13.9 Gy) microspheres. Tumor AD was not correlated with baseline or post-SIRT lesion characteristics and no dose-response threshold could be identified. Tc-MAA-SPECT/CT dosimetry provides good estimates of AD to tumor and non-tumor liver in UMLM patients treated with first-line SIRT.
一线选择性内放射治疗(SIRT)在患有葡萄膜黑色素瘤肝转移(UMLM)的患者中显示出良好的疗效。患者的生存取决于肝脏疾病的控制情况。SIRT 计划至关重要,但关于剂量学的了解甚少。我们研究了 Tc-MAA-SPECT/CT 剂量学是否可以预测 Y-PET/CT 评估的吸收剂量(AD),并评估一线 SIRT 治疗 UMLM 患者的剂量反应关系。这项经过机构审查委员会批准的、单中心、回顾性分析(前瞻性收集队列)纳入了 12 名患者(中位年龄 63 岁,范围 43-82 岁)。患者在 SIRT 前后进行了 MRI/CT、F-FDG-PET/CT 检查,并在 SIRT 后立即进行了 Y-PET/CT 检查。纳入了 32 个靶病灶。从 Tc-MAA-SPECT/CT 和 SIRT 后 Y-PET/CT 获得肿瘤和非肿瘤肝脏的 AD 估计值,并通过林氏一致性相关系数(ρ 和 C)、皮尔逊系数相关性(ρ)和 Bland-Altman 分析(平均值差异±标准差;95%置信区间(LOA))进行评估。分析了肿瘤特征和微球类型对 AD 的影响。根据大小、增强和代谢反应标准评估肿瘤反应。平均靶病灶 AD 为 349Gy(范围 46-1586Gy)。校正恢复系数(RC)后,Tc-MAA-SPECT/CT 和 Y-PET/CT 肿瘤剂量学的一致性得到改善(ρ=0.725,ρ=0.703,C=0.969),具有良好的一致性(平均差异:-4.93±218.3Gy,95%LOA:-432.8-422.9)。不进行 RC 校正时,树脂微球的一致性更好(ρ=0.85,ρ=0.998,C=0.849),预测性 Tc-MAA-SPECT/CT 和 Y-PET/CT 剂量学之间的一致性非常好(平均差异:-4.05±55.9Gy;95%LOA:-113.7-105.6)。校正 RC 后,Tc-MAA-SPECT/CT 剂量学高估了 AD(-70.9±158.9Gy;95%LOA:-382.3-240.6)。对于玻璃微球,校正 RC 后一致性明显改善(ρ=0.790,ρ=0.713,C=0.903 与无校正时相比:ρ=0.395,ρ=0.244,C=0.617),Tc-MAA-SPECT/CT 剂量学低估了 AD(148.9±267.5Gy;95%LOA:-375.4-673.2)。对于非肿瘤肝脏,Tc-MAA-SPECT/CT 和 Y-PET/CT 剂量学之间的一致性良好(ρ=0.942,ρ=0.852,C=0.904)。Tc-MAA-SPECT/CT 略微高估了树脂(3.4±3.4Gy)和玻璃(11.5±13.9Gy)微球的肝脏 AD。肿瘤 AD 与基线或 SIRT 后病灶特征无关,无法确定剂量反应阈值。Tc-MAA-SPECT/CT 剂量学可提供 UMLM 患者一线 SIRT 治疗中肿瘤和非肿瘤肝脏 AD 的良好估计值。
