Oligometastatic prostate cancer is an evolving clinical entity as more data from novel imaging tools such as PSMA PET/CT emerges. Recognition of this disease entity allows for unique interventions which differ from conventional treatment of metastatic prostate cancers such as the initiation of chemotherapy. With metastasis-directed therapy (MDT), there is potential for early eradication of limited disease metastases and a delay in systemic treatment with its associated treatment-related toxicities. This review explores the current evidence and outcomes of different metastasis-directed therapies such as the role of radiotherapy in low volume metastasis and the use of PSMA ligands to facilitate pelvic lymph node dissections. With a deeper understanding of this low metastasis state, it has revolutionized the current viable treatment options, and more studies are ongoing to provide further insights into this unique disease entity.
随着诸如PSMA PET/CT等新型成像工具产生的更多数据出现,寡转移前列腺癌是一个不断演变的临床实体。认识到这种疾病实体允许采取不同于转移性前列腺癌传统治疗(如启动化疗)的独特干预措施。通过转移灶定向治疗(MDT),有可能早期根除有限的疾病转移灶,并延迟全身治疗及其相关的治疗毒性。本综述探讨了不同转移灶定向治疗的当前证据和结果,如放疗在低容量转移中的作用以及使用PSMA配体促进盆腔淋巴结清扫。随着对这种低转移状态的更深入理解,它彻底改变了当前可行的治疗选择,并且正在进行更多研究以进一步深入了解这种独特的疾病实体。
