Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Patients with metastatic cancer are usually treated with systemic therapy (treating the entire body) with the assumption that any localized treatment of clinically apparent metastases would not impact survival. In the setting of increasingly effective systemic therapy and limited metastatic disease, aggressive treatment to clinically active sites of disease (alone or in addition to systemic therapy) may improve survival.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Procedure: Complete Surgical Removal
  • Radiation: Stereotactic Radiosurgery
  • Radiation: Ablative external beam radiation dose
  • Procedure: Subtotal surgical removal plus ablative radiation dose
  • Radiation: Radioembolization
Phase 2

Detailed Description

Up to recently it has been assumed that in the setting of metastatic solid tumors, locoregional control of clinically apparent metastases does not substantially impact survival due to undetectable micrometastic (clinically not visualized) disease that ultimately lead to treatment failure/progression. However, as more advanced systemic therapy continue to improve control of micrometastatic disease, failures at the original sites of disease remain common. Furthermore, some studies have shown locoregional treatment of limited clinical metastases to actually improve survival. Therefore, the investigators hypothesize that aggressive treatment to clinically active sites of disease (alone or in addition to systemic therapy) may improve survival or alter the course of the disease in some patients with limited metastatic disease.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Definitive locoregional treatment

All sites of active disease should be treated definitively (with one of the interventions listed below). Definitive treatment does not have to be the same for all sites of disease.

Procedure: Complete Surgical Removal

Radiation: Stereotactic Radiosurgery
Other Names:
  • Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for extracranial metastases are also known as streotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT)
  • Radiation: Ablative external beam radiation dose
    Other Names:
  • External Beam Radiation Therapy (EBRT) with prescribed doses ≥ 45 Gy (biologic equivalent dose)
  • Procedure: Subtotal surgical removal plus ablative radiation dose
    Residual tumor or close/positive margins should be followed by ablative radiation doses (by either stereotactic radiosurgery or convential EBRT) to constitute definitive locoregional treatment
    Other Names:
  • tumors surgically debulked with residual disease or close/positive margins followed by ablative radiation doses
  • Radiation: Radioembolization
    radioembolization of the liver with Y-90 microspheres or other site-appropriate techniques
    Other Names:
  • Yttrium-90 (Y-90) microspheres
  • Y-90 radioembolization
  • SIR-spheres
  • TheraSphere
  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Survival [5 years]

      Overall and disease-specific survival, to be assessed at 1, 3, and 5 years.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Progression free survival (PFS) [5 years]

      Time to first progression of disease (regardless of location)

    2. Locoregional disease control [5 years]

      Time to first progression within definitively treated areas

    3. Toxicity [5 years]

      Including grade 2+ toxicity attributable to localized study treatment as well as to systemic therapy
