Purpose/Objectives: Retrospective analysis suggests that dose escalation to a biologically effective dose of more than 70 Gy may improve overall survival in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), but such treatments in practice are limited by proximity of organs at risk (OARs). We hypothesized that CT-guided online adaptive radiotherapy (OART) can account for interfraction movement of OARs and allow for safe delivery of ablative doses. Materials/Methods: This is a single institution retrospective analysis of patients with PDAC treated with OART on the Ethos platform (Varian Medical Systems, a Siemens Healthineers Company, Palo Alto). All patients were treated to 40 Gy in 5 fractions. PTV overlapping with a 5 mm planning risk volume expansion on the stomach, duodenum and bowel received 25 Gy. Initial treatment plans were created conventionally. For each fraction, PTV and OAR volumes were recontoured with AI assistance after initial cone beam CT (CBCT). The adapted plan was calculated, underwent QA, and then compared to the scheduled plan. A second CBCT was obtained prior to delivery of the selected plan. Total treatment time (first CBCT to end of radiation delivery) and active physician time (first to second CBCT) were recorded. PTV_4000 V95 %, PTV_2500 V9 5%, and D0.03 cc to stomach, duodenum and bowel were reported for scheduled (S) and adapted (A) plans. CTCAEv5.0 toxicities were recorded. Statistical analysis was performed using a two-sided T test and α of 0.05. Results: 21 patients with unresectable or locally-recurrent PDAC were analyzed, with a total of 105 fractions. Average total time was 29 min and 16 s (16:36–49:40) and average active physician time was 19:41 min (9:25–39:34). All fractions were treated with adapted plans. 97 % of adapted plans met PTV_4000 V95.0 % >95.0 % coverage goal and 100 % of adapted plans met OAR dose constraints. Median follow up was 6.6 months. Only 1 patient experienced acute grade 3+ toxicity directly attributable to radiation. Only 1 patient experienced late grade 3+ toxicity directly attributable to radiation. Conclusions: Daily CT-based OART was associated with significantly reduced dose OARs while achieving superior PTV coverage. Given the relatively quick total treatment time, radiation delivery was generally well tolerated and easily incorporated into the clinic workflow. Our initial clinical experience demonstrates OART allows for safe dose escalation in the treatment of PDAC. |
