Sequential metastasis-directed therapy (MDT) for oligometastatic prostate cancer (Oligo PCa) assessed by PET-based imaging.

Abstract

5032 Background: Prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) and F-18-Fluciclovine PET imaging have high sensitivity for the detection of prostate cancer (PCa) metastases. MDT with stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) to PET-detected Oligo PCa has been shown to improve progression free survival (PFS) and delay androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). However, in those patients (pts) who ultimately develop oligoprogressive disease following MDT, the utility of subsequent courses of MDT has not been well defined. Methods: A single institution retrospective review was undertaken to describe outcomes following ≥2 courses of PET-guided SBRT in pts with Oligo PCa. Pts included in this analysis had undergone initial SBRT for ≤5 PCa lesions detected on PSMA or Fluciclovine PET, and subsequently underwent ≥1 additional course of SBRT at progression. Baseline data collected included stage, PSA level, Gleason Score, tracer type, and concurrent systemic therapy. Endpoints collected for each SBRT course included PSA decline ≥50% (PSA50), PFS, and systemic therapy change free survival (RxFS) (initiation of ADT, or for pts already on ADT, addition of an androgen signaling inhibitor). Association of factors with PFS after SBRT2 were analyzed using multivariable Cox proportional-hazards models. Results: 34 pts underwent ≥2 courses of MDT (SBRT1, SBRT2). At SBRT2, progression was identified by PSMA-PET in 26 (77%) pts, and by Fluciclovine-PET in 8 (23%). With SBRT2, 18 (53%) had a concurrent systemic therapy change; 10 (29%) did not receive any systemic therapy. 12 pts subsequently underwent SBRT3. Progression was detected by PSMA PET in 9 (75%) and Fluciclovine PET in 3 (25%). Clinical outcomes are summarized in the table. In the multivariable analysis, predictors associated with PFS following SBRT2 were 1) PSA decline at SBRT1 (HR 1.10, 95% CI 1.05-1.16, P<0.001) and 2) PSA doubling time (PSADT) < 12 months at the time of SBRT2 (HR 11.52, 95% CI 1.36-97.38, P 0.025). Overall, from SBRT1 to last follow-up (median 25.2 months), 23 (68%) pts remained ADT-free (14 after SBRT2; 9 after SBRT3). Conclusions: Serial MDT for Oligo PCa detected on PSMA or Fluciclovine PET is feasible and results in PSA declines, independent of change in systemic therapy. There is a persistent but diminishing benefit of MDT over successive courses. Overall, 2/3 of pts were able to postpone the use of ADT. PSA decline at SBRT1 and PSADT at SBRT2 may be biomarkers for SBRT2 benefit. Despite the retrospective nature of this study and cohort heterogeneity, these data provide a rationale for serial SBRT in Oligo PCA, and the need for larger, prospective studies of this strategy.
