84 Post-operative Radiation Therapy

85 Adjuvant Radiotherapy: Adjuvant Radiotherapy: Meta-analysis 1998 Individual data from 9 randomized trials including 2128 patients Treatment details (staging, surgery, RT) highly variable among series PORT: better local control: 29% fewer local recurrences - 195 LR vs 276 LR for no RT Overall HR = 1.21 (1.08-1.34) ~ survival decrement of 7 % at two years (55% vs 48%) Increase risk greater for early stage patients(Stage I/II vs. III) Lancet 25 July 1998.

86 PORT Meta-analysis PORT Meta-analysis Survival Curves Stewart et al Lancet 1998.

87 PORT – Results by Stage/Nodal Status No increased risk for patients with N2 disease Patients with the least to gain have the most to lose Stewart et al Lancet 1998

88 PORT Meta-analysis PORT Meta-analysis Methodologic Flaws Variable and unspecified staging Variable and unspecified interval between resection and PORT Inadequate RT –Suboptimal doses; large fields –Poor treatment planning –Outmoded techniques (e.g.: use of low-energy photons or 60 Co for a substantial proportion of patients) Inclusion of node negative patients Unpublished data (2 of 9 studies) Relatively short follow up (< 4 yrs)

89 Risks of PORT Risks of PORT Modern Technology Retrospective review –202 patients treated with surgery and PORT for Stage II and III disease –Median dose 55 Gy –Actuarial rate of death from intercurrent disease was 13.5% compared to expected rate of 10% Machtay et al JCO 2001.

94 Controversies Which regimen? –Cisplatin vs Carboplatin? Cisplatin with vinorelbine, gemcitabine, docetaxel, pemetrexed (non-squam), or nab- paclitaxel, carboplatin regimens if not cis candidate Stage IB? If at least 4 cm. Predictive/prognostic biomarkers? Not ready for prime time, clinical trials ongoing Post-operative XRT (PORT)? Consider if N2 disease
