Abstract PURPOSE 18F-DOPA is sensitive/specific for identifying areas of biologically aggressive disease for glioblastoma. We report the impact of 18F-DOPA on radiation treatment planning from a phase II study. METHODS Gross target volume (GTV) was defined by the boolean of high-risk PET (tumor/normal brain SUV > 2.0) and MRI T1 contrast enhancement (MRI-CE) including surgical cavity. The clinical target volume (CTV) included the GTV with 1cm margin. Using proton beam therapy, GTV ≤ 65 cc was treated with 25 (CTV), 30 (MRI-CE), and 35 (PET) GyE over 5 fractions with a simultaneous integrated boost. GTV > 65 cc received 30 (CTV), 35 (MRI-CE), and 40 (PET) GyE over 10 fractions. Radiation field design was compared to traditional 1.5cm CTV margin on MRI-CE. RESULTS Between May 2019 and October 2021, 39 patients were treated. The median MRI-CE tumor diameter was 5.2cm. The median PET volume was 7.9cc (range 0–64.9cc). The median MRI-CE volume was 35.1cc (range 8.6–114cc). High-risk PET was contained within: MRI-CE 18/39 (46%), MRI-CE + T2W FLAIR 13/39 (33%), MRI-CE + T2W FLAIR + outside GTV 4/39 (10%), outside GTV 2/39 (5%) and no uptake 2/39 (5%). Utilizing this planning technique, there was a 26% volume reduction in CTV to traditional 1.5 cm margin on MRI-CE. PET imaging in treatment planning allowed inclusion of high-risk disease that would have been excluded on traditional CTV in 23% of cases (range 1.6-33.8cc). PET was more predictive [HR 1.03 (95% CI 1.01, 1.05) p = 0.002] than MRI [HR 1.01 (95% CI 1.00, 1.03) p = 0.02] for death with each cc increasing risk of death by 3.1%. CONCLUSIONS The incorporation of 18F-DOPA in treatment planning yields a more targeted approach with reductions in both normal brain treated and risk of geographic miss compared to traditional CTV margins.
