Abstrakt: Purpose: Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) boost is a promising treatment for cervical cancer patients who are ineligible for intracavitary brachytherapy (ICBT). The aim of this multicenter, single-arm, phase I/II study was to prospectively evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of SBRT boost.
Materials and Methods: ICBT-ineligible patients with untreated cervical cancer were enrolled. Patients underwent whole-pelvic radiotherapy (45 Gy in 25 fractions) with SBRT boost to the primary lesion. In the phase I dose-escalation cohort (3 + 3 design), patients were treated with SBRT boost of 21 or 22.5 Gy in three fractions. Although dose-limiting toxicity was not confirmed, a dose of 21 Gy was selected for the phase II cohort because it was difficult to reproduce the pelvic organs position in two patients during the phase I trial. The primary endpoint was 2-year progression-free survival.
Results: Twenty-one patients (phase I, n = 3; phase II, n = 18) were enrolled between April 2016 and October 2020; 17 (81%) had clinical stage III-IV (with para-aortic lymph node metastases) disease. The median (range) follow-up was 40 (10-84) months. The initial response was complete response in 20 patients and partial response in one patient. The 2-year locoregional control, progression-free survival, and overall survival rates were 84%, 67%, and 81%, respectively. Grade ≥ 3 toxicity was confirmed in one patient each in the acute (diarrhea) and late (urinary tract obstruction) phases.
Conclusion: These findings suggested that a SBRT boost is more effective than the conventional EBRT boost and can be an important treatment option for ICBT-ineligible patients with cervical cancer.
