    Stereotactic radiotherapy to oligoprogressive lesions detected with Ga-68-PSMA-PET/CT in castration-resistant prostate cancer patients
    (2021) Onal, Cem; Ozyigit, Gokhan; Oymak, Ezgi; Guler, Ozan Cem; Tilki, Burak; Hurmuz, Pervin; Akyol, Fadil; 0000-0002-2742-9021; 33693965; D-5195-2014
    Purpose We assessed the outcomes of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) to treat oligoprogressive castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) patients with <= 5 lesions using gallium prostate-specific membrane antigen-positron emission tomography (Ga-68-PSMA-PET/CT). Methods The clinical data of 67 CRPC patients with 133 lesions treated with Ga-68-PSMA-PET/CT-based SBRT were retrospectively analyzed. All of the patients had oligoprogressive disease during androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT). The prognostic factors for overall- (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) and the predictive factors for switching to next-line systemic treatment (NEST) and NEST-free survival (NEST-FS) were analyzed. Results With a median follow-up of 17.5 months, the 2-year overall survival (OS) and PFS rates were 86.9% and 34.4%, respectively. The PSA response was observed in 49 patients (73.1%). Progression was observed in 37 patients (55.2%) at a median of 11.0 months following SBRT. A total of 45 patients (67.2%) remained on ADT after SBRT, and 22 patients (32.8%) had a NEST change at a median of 16.4 months after metastasis-directed treatment (MDT). Patients with a NEST change had higher post-SBRT PSA values and fewer PSA nadirs after MDT than their counterparts. In multivariate analysis, higher pre-SBRT PSA values were the only significant predictor for worse OS and NEST-FS, and no significant factor was found for PFS. No serious acute or late toxicities were observed. Conclusion This study demonstrated the feasibility of MDT using SBRT to treat oligoprogressive lesions by Ga-68-PSMA-PET/CT in CRPC patients is efficient and well-tolerated, prolonging the effectiveness of ADT by delaying NEST.

    Role of 68-Ga-PSMA-PET/CT in pelvic radiotherapy field definitions for lymph node coverage in prostate cancer patients
    (2020) Onal, Cem; Ozyigit, Gokhan; Guler, Ozan Cem; Hurmuz, Pervin; Torun, Nese; Tuncel, Murat; Dolek, Yemliha; Yedekci, Yagiz; Oymak, Ezgi; Tilki, Burak; Akyol, Fadil; 0000-0002-2742-9021; 0000-0001-6908-3412; 32861704; AAE-2718-2021; D-5195-2014; AAC-5654-2020
    Purpose: To evaluate the distribution of metastatic lymph nodes (LN) detected on Ga-68-PSMA-positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in treatment-naive prostate cancer (PC) patients and to analyze the LN coverage rates of the pelvic fields defined in the GETUG trial and RTOG guidelines and a pelvic field extending superiorly from the L4/L5 interspace. Materials and methods: Ga-68-PSMA-PET/CT images obtained at diagnosis of 138 PC patients were retro-spectively analyzed. The number and locations of Ga-68-PSMA-positive LNs were co-registered with one single-planning CT. The numbers, locations, and sizes of LNs located outside the three pelvic volumes were investigated for the entire cohort and for patients with LN metastasis in the pelvic area only. Results: A total of 441 PSMA-PET-positive LN metastases were identified. The most frequent metastatic LNs were internal iliac LNs (25.2%). Para-aortic and presacral LNs outside the three pelvic fields were present in 20 (14.5%) and 22 patients (15.9%), respectively. The LN coverage rates according to the GETUG trial, the RTOG guidelines, and the pelvic field extending superiorly from L4/L5 were 44.2%, 52.2%, and 71, respectively, in the entire cohort and 51.7%, 61 and 83.1%, respectively, in patients with only pelvic LN metastasis. The number of metastatic LNs was a predictive factor for LNs located outside the three pelvic fields. Conclusions: Extending the cranial margin of the pelvic field from L5/S1 to L4/L5 increases the accuracy of pelvic field irradiation in approximately 20% of patients, highlighting the importance of proximal common iliac irradiation, particularly in patients with multiple LN metastasis.
