INNV-02. USAGE TRENDS OF COLLAGEN TILE BRACHYTHERAPY FOR THE FIRST 1000 ORDERS

Abstract

Abstract INTRODUCTION Collagen tile brachytherapy (CTBT) was cleared by the FDA in 2018 for all recurrent intracranial neoplasms and in 2020 for newly diagnosed intracranial neoplasms. We sought to describe usage trends of CTBT by evaluating the first 1000 consecutive orders since CTBT became commercially available in 2019 with respect to tumor type (glioma, brain metastasis, meningioma) and CTBT treatment setting (newly diagnosed, recurrence with prior radiation, recurrence without prior radiation). METHODS Commercial data was accessed using Salesforce, Inc. Coefficient of correlation (r2) was estimated as a measure of orders over time. 1000 orders were divided into 4 time cohorts (Cohort 1 for 1st 250 orders, Cohort 2 for 2nd 250 orders, Cohort 3 for 3rd for 250 orders and Cohort 4 for 4th 250 orders). Order proportions were compared among time cohorts using X2 tests. RESULTS Time period for 1000 orders among 93 centers was 1/23/19–5/11/23. Over these 17 completed yearly quarters there was a positive trend in ordering frequency (r2=0.97). Tumor type was known for 917 orders, of which 52.2% were glioma, 37.4% metastases, and 10.4% meningioma. Proportions of orders for tumor type did not change over time cohorts (p=0.26). Treatment setting was known for 816 orders, of which 80.3% were in recurrence with previous radiation, 14.3% newly diagnosed, and 5.4% recurrence without previous radiation. For glioma and meningioma, treatment setting did not change over time cohorts (p=0.5, p=0.3, respectively). However, for metastases, the proportion of orders for use in the newly diagnosed setting increased over time: 6.4% in Cohort 1, 19.2% in Cohort 2, 21.6% in Cohort 3, 34.7% in Cohort 4 (p< 0.001). CONCLUSION CTBT usage is increasing over time. Proportions of orders among tumor types (glioma, meningioma, metastases) has not changed. However, use of CTBT is increasing in the newly diagnosed setting for brain metastases.
