Abstract PO4-22-06: Outcomes following Stereotactic Radiotherapy in Oligometastatic Breast Cancer: a single centre retrospective review

Abstract Introduction: Stereotactic radiotherapy (SABR) is an increasingly used treatment for oligometastatic disease with evidence of survival benefit shown in the SABR-COMET trial. However, the benefit in oligometastatic breast cancer has been brought into question following initial results from the NRG-BR002 trial. Methods: A retrospective review of all patients with primary breast cancer treated with stereotactic radiotherapy for oligometastases at our institution was carried out. A total of 31 patients received treatment to 36 lesions between August 2015 and December 2022. Results: Neither median overall survival nor progression free survival were reached after median follow up time of 21.5 months. Hormone receptor status as follows: ER+, HER2- (n=25), ER+, HER2+ (n=4,), TNBC (n=2). The majority of lesions treated were bony metastases (92%, of which 17 vertebral and 11 pelvic lesions). The majority had oligometastatic disease at time of SABR (67%), with 33% treated for oligoprogression. Most patients were on systemic anti-cancer therapy (SACT) at the time of SABR, or had a planned start of SACT shortly following treatment. Breakdown of systemic therapy as follows: Endocrine therapy (ET) alone 9 patients (29%), CDK4/6 inhibitor plus ET 13 patients (42%), chemotherapy 3 patients (10%), antibody drug conjugate 2 (6%), anti-HER2 therapy + ET 2 patients (6%), none 2 patients (6%). All patients also received bone-targeted agents (zoledronic acid or denosumab). Local control was achieved in 33 lesions (92%), all of which were bony lesions. Local control was maintained in both patients who were not on SACT: one patient with ER+ HER2- disease developed distant progression after 27 months, the other with TNBC remains disease free after 13 months. Loss of local control was observed in all non-bony sites (lung, IMC node, peri-ureteric soft tissue mass) at a median interval of 10 months (range 7-43 months). 14 patients subsequently developed distant disease progression at median interval of 15 months (range 0-43 months). 12 month progression free survival was 77%. 13 patients received further SACT at median interval of 16 months. Conclusions: SABR for bony metastases from breast cancer has excellent local control rates in combination with systemic treatment but may also give patients significant time off treatment. Questions remain regarding the ideal sequencing and combination of SABR and SACT, particularly in hormone receptor positive patients where there are a number of lines of effective SACT.
