Abstract

Peritoneal carcinosis (PC) is characterized by poor prognosis. PC is currently treated as a locoregional disease and the possibility to perform very precise treatments such as stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) has opened up new therapeutic perspectives. More recently, the introduction of Magnetic Resonance-guided Radiation Therapy (MRgRT) allowed online adaptation (OA) of treatment plan to optimize daily dose distribution based on patient's anatomy. The aim of this study is the evaluation of the effectiveness of SBRT OA workflow in an oligometastatic patient affected by PC. We report the clinical case of a patient affected by PC originating from colon cancer, previously treated with chemotherapy and surgery, addressed to OA SBRT treatment on a single chemoresistant PC nodule, delivered with a 0.35 T MR Linac. Treatment was delivered using gating approach in deep inspiration breath hold condition in order to reduce intrafraction variability. Prescription dose was 35 Gy in 5 fractions. The PTV V95% of the original plan was 96.6%, while the predicted values for the following fractions were 11.9, 56.4, 0, 0, and 61%. Similarly, the small bowel V19.5 Gy of the original plan was 4.63 cc, while the predicted values for the following fractions were 3.7, 8.6, 10.7, 1.96, 3.7 cc. Thanks to the OA approach, the re-optimized PTV V95% coverage improved to 96.1, 89.0, 85.5, 94.5, and 94%; while the small bowel V19.5 Gy to 3.36; 3.28; 1.84; 2.62; 2.6 cc respectively. After the end of RT, the patient was addressed to follow-up, and the re-evaluation 18F-FDG PET-CT was performed after 10 months from irradiation showed complete response. No acute or late toxicities were recorded. MRgRT with OA approach in PC patients is technically and clinically feasible with clean toxicity result. Online adaptive SBRT for oligometastases opens up new therapeutic scenarios in the management of this category of patients.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 02 January 2021.
All research outputs
#22,771,990
of 25,387,668 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in oncology
#15,926
of 22,433 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#447,529
of 518,006 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in oncology
#379
of 625 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,387,668 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 22,433 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.0. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 518,006 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 625 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
