    (2021) Onal, Cem; Ozyigit, Gokhan; Oymak, Ezgi; Guler, Ozan Cem; Hurmuz, Pervin; Tilki, Burak; Reyhan, Mehmet; Tuncel, Murat; Akyol, Fadil; 0000-0002-2742-9021; 33949694; D-5195-2014
    Background Defining the extent of disease spread with imaging modalities is crucial for therapeutic decision-making and definition of treatment. This study aimed to investigate whether clinical parameters and nomograms predict prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-positive lymph nodes in treatment-naive nonmetastatic prostate cancer (PC) patients. Materials and Methods The clinical data of 443 PC patients (83.3% high-risk and 16.7% intermediate-risk) were retrospectively analyzed. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves with areas under the curve (AUC) were generated to evaluate the accuracy of clinical parameters (prostate-specific antigen [PSA], T stage, Gleason score [GS], International Society of Urological Pathology [ISUP] grade) and nomograms (Roach formula [RF], Yale formula [YF], and a new formula [NF]) in predicting lymph node metastasis. The AUCs of the various parameters and clinical nomograms were compared using ROC and precision-recall (PR) curves. Results A total of 288 lymph node metastases were identified in 121 patients (27.3%) using Ga-68-PSMA-11-positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT). Most PSMA-avid lymph node metastases occurred in external or internal iliac lymph nodes (142; 49.3%). Clinical T stage, PSA, GS, and ISUP grade were significantly associated with PSMA-positive lymph nodes according to univariate logistic regression analysis. The PSMA-positive lymph nodes were more frequently detected in patients with PSA >20 ng/ml, GS >= 7 or high risk disease compared to their counterparts. The clinical T stage, serum PSA level, GS, and ISUP grade showed similar accuracy in predicting PSMA-positive metastasis, with AUC values ranging from 0.675 to 0.704. The median risks for PSMA-positive lymph nodes according to the RF, YF, and NF were 31.3% (range: 12.3%-100%), 22.3% (range: 4.7%-100%), and 40.5% (range: 12.3%-100%), respectively. The AUC values generated from ROC and PR curve analyses were similar for all clinical nomograms, although the RF and YF had higher accuracy compared to NF. Conclusion The clinical T stage, PSA, GS, and ISUP grade are independent predictors of PSMA-positive lymph nodes. The RF and YF can be used to identify patients who can benefit from Ga-68-PSMA-11 PET/CT for the detection of lymph node metastasis. Together with nomograms, Ga-68-PSMA-11 PET/CT images help to localize PSMA-positive lymph node metastases and can thus assist in surgery and radiotherapy planning.

    Oligometastatic Bone Disease in Castration-Sensitive Prostate Cancer Patients Treated With Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy Using Ga-68-PSMA PET/CT TROD 09-004 Study
    (2021) Onal, Cem; Ozyigit, Gokhan; Akgun, Zuleyha; Atalar, Banu; Igdem, Sefik; Oymak, Ezgi; Agaoglu, Fulya; Selek, Ugur; Guler, Ozan Cem; Hurmuz, Pervin; 33661210
    Purpose To evaluate the outcomes of metastasis-directed treatment (MDT) using stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for bone-only oligometastasis (OM) detected with gallium prostate-specific membrane antigen (Ga-68-PSMA) PET/CT in castration-sensitive prostate cancer (PC) patients. Methods In this multi-institutional study, clinical data of 74 PC patients with 153 bone lesions who were undergoing MDT were retrospectively evaluated. Twenty-seven patients (36.5%) had synchronous, and 47 (63.5%) had metachronous OM. All patients had PC with 5 metastases or fewer detected by Ga-68-PSMA PET/CT and treated using SBRT with a median dose of 20 Gy. The prognostic factors for PC-specific survival (PCSS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were analyzed. Results The median follow-up was 27.3 months. Patients with synchronous OM were older and received higher rates of androgen deprivation therapy after SBRT compared with patients with metachronous OM. The 2-year PCSS and PFS rates were 92.0% and 72.0%, respectively. A prostate-specific antigen (PSA) decline was observed in 56 patients (75.7%), and 48 (64.9%) had a PSA response defined as at least 25% decrease of PSA after MDT. The 2-year local control rate per lesion was 95.4%. In multivariate analysis, single OM and PSA response after MDT were significant predictors for better PCSS and PFS. In-field recurrence was observed in 4 patients (6.5%) with 10 lesions at a median of 13.1 months after MDT completion. No serious late toxicity was observed. Conclusions We demonstrated that SBRT is an efficient and well-tolerated treatment option for PC patients with 5 bone-only oligometastases or fewer detected with Ga-68-PSMA PET/CT.

    Stereotactic body radiotherapy for oligoprogressive lesions in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer patients during abiraterone/enzalutamide treatment
    (2021) Onal, Cem; Kose, Fatih; Ozyigit, Gokhan; Aksoy, Sercan; Oymak, Ezgi; Muallaoglu, Sadik; Guler, Ozan C.; Tilki, Burak; Hurmuz, Pervin; Akyol, Fadil; 0000-0002-2742-9021; 33905131; D-5195-2014
    Background Metastasis-directed therapy (MDT) utilizing stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for oligoprogressive lesions could provide a delay in next-line systemic treatment (NEST) change while undergoing androgen receptor-targeted agents (ARTA) treatment. We evaluated prognostic factors for prostate cancer-specific survival (PCSS) and progression-free survival (PFS) to characterize patients receiving treatment with ARTA who may benefit from MDT for oligoprogressive lesions. The impact of MDT on delaying NEST and the predictive factors for NEST-free survival (NEST-FS) were also assessed. Materials and Methods The clinical data of 54 metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer patients with 126 oligoprogressive lesions receiving abiraterone (1 g/day) or enzalutamide (160 mg/day) before or after systemic chemotherapy were analyzed. A median of three lesions (range: 1-5) were treated with MDT. The primary endpoints were PCSS and PFS. The secondary endpoints were time to switch to NEST and NEST-FS. Results The median follow-up time was 19.1 months. Univariate analysis showed that the number of oligoprogressive lesions treated with SBRT and the time between the start of ARTA treatment and oligoprogression were significant prognostic factors for PCSS, and the timing of ARTA treatment (before or after chemotherapy) and the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response after MDT were significant prognostic factors for PFS. Multivariate analysis showed that early MDT for oligoprogressive lesions delivered less than 6 months after the beginning of ARTA and higher PSA levels after MDT were significant predictors of worse PCSS and PFS. The median total duration of ARTA treatment was 13.8 months. The median time between the start of ARTA treatment and the start of MDT for oligoprogressive lesions was 5.2 months, and MDT extended the ARTA treatment by 8.6 months on average. Thirty-two (59.3%) patients continued ARTA treatment after MDT. ARTA treatment after chemotherapy, early oligoprogression requiring MDT, and lower radiation doses for MDT were independent predictors of NEST-FS in multivariate analysis. Conclusions MDT for oligoprogressive lesions is effective and may provide several benefits compared to switching from ARTA treatment to NEST. Patients with early progression while on ARTAs and inadequate PSA responses after MDT have a greater risk of rapid disease progression and poor survival, which necessitates intensified treatment.

    (2019) Onal, Cem; Sedef, Ali Murat; Kose, Fatih; Oymak, Ezgi; Guler, Ozan Cem; Sumbul, Ahmet Taner; Aksoy, Sercan; Yildirim, Berna Akkus; Besen, Ali Ayberk; Muallaoglu, Sadik; Mertsoylu, Huseyin; Ozyigit, Gokhan; 0000-0001-6908-3412; 0000-0002-5573-906X; 0000-0002-0156-5973; 30977383; D-4793-2014; AAC-5654-2020
    Currently, there are no predictive markers of response to abiraterone. We calculated neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) at baseline and at 4 and 12 weeks after initiation of abiraterone, and we evaluated prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response every 4 weeks in 102 metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) patients treated with abiraterone either pre-or postchemotherapy. With a median follow-up was 24.0 months (range: 0.3-54.9), median overall survival (OS) was 20.8 months. High-NLR patients who remained high or who returned to low NLR after 4 and 12 weeks showed significantly worse OS than patients with low baseline NLR. NLR and prostate-specific antigen response to abiraterone was a significant predictor of OS and progression-free survival (PFS) in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer patients treated with abiraterone delivered either pre-or postchemotherapy.
