Background:
The safety of SBRT for medically inoperable patients with centrally located early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) was evaluated in this phase I/II multicenter RTOG study that completed accrual in Sept 2013. This is the first report of adverse events (AE) observed on the study.
Methods:
Eligible patients were medically inoperable with biopsy proven, PET staged T1-2N0M0 NSCLC, ≤ 5 cm in size, centrally located tumors (within or touching the zone of the proximal bronchial tree or adjacent to mediastinal or pericardial pleura). Patients were successively accrued onto dose-escalating 5 fraction SBRT schedules delivered over 1.5-2 weeks, starting with 10 Gy per fraction (fr), then 10.5Gy/fr, 11 Gy/fr, 11.5 Gy/fr and 12 Gy /fr. Toxicity was graded using CTCAE v4.0; any potential dose-limiting toxicity within the initial 365 days post SBRT could have led to dose reduction for subsequent patients accrued, using TITE-CRM (time-to-event continual reassessment method) statistical design.
Results:
120 patients (100 evaluable) from 43 centers were accrued between 2/2009 and 9/2013. 12 were excluded as they did not receive protocol treatment (6 of these on the 12Gy/fr cohort) and another 8 did not meet eligibility criteria. Cohort sizes were 8 (10Gy/fr), 8 (10.5Gy/fr), 18 (11Gy/fr), 43 (11.5Gy/fr), and 43 pts (12Gy/fr). Median age was 72 (range 52- 89) years, 57% were female, 45% had squamous cell carcinoma, 39% had adenocarcinoma, 65% had T1 tumors. Median follow up was 26.6 months. Most adverse events were grade (G) 1 or 2. 5/8 pts in lowest SBRT dose cohort (10 Gy/fr) experienced G2 toxicity, none had G>3. Of 7 pts in 10.5 Gy/fr, 1 had G2 and 1 had G5 toxicity. Of 14 pts in 11 Gy/fr cohort, 4 had G2 and 1 had G3. Of 38 pts in 11.5Gy/fr cohort, 11 had G2, 4 had G3 and 2 had G5. Of 33 pts in 12Gy/fr, 4 had G2, 5 had G3, 1 G4 and 1Gr 5 as the worst overall toxicity definitely, probably or possibly related to SBRT. All Gr 5 toxicities were due to hemoptysis, occuring at a mean of 13 mo post SBRT (range 5.5-14mo). G2+ GI toxicity only occurred in the 11.5Gy/fr (1/38) and 12.0Gy/fr (2/33) cohorts. G2+ pulmonary toxicity occurred in 4/8 10.0Gy/fr, 0/8 10.5Gy/fr, 5/14 11.0Gy/fr, 15/38 11.5Gy/fr, and 10/33 12.0Gy/fr pts.
Conclusion:
This phase I/II trial of SBRT provides data to inform patients of the potential toxicities with a 5 fraction SBRT schedule for centrally located NSCLC. Although SBRT was well tolerated, 4/100 pts (4%) had fatal hemoptysis potentially attributable to SBRT. Determination of the optimal SBRT dose needs to await analysis of tumor locations, DVH data and efficacy data. This project was supported by grants U10CA21661, U10CA180868, U10CA180822 and U10CA37422 from the National Cancer Institute (NCI).
