    Purpose: The purpose of the study was to evaluate the effect of adding androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) to brachytherapy with or without external beam radiation therapy on oncological outcomes in prostate cancer. Methods and Materials: Overall, 1,171 patients with intermediate-risk prostate cancer treated with brachytherapy with or without external beam radiation therapy with or without ADT between 2003 and 2013 were identified. Propensity score matching was used to counter biases between the ADT and non-ADT groups. The biochemical failure-free rate (bFFR), local recurrence-free rate, and overall survival rate were evaluated using Kaplan–Meier curves, and predictors were identified using Cox proportional hazards regression models. Results: After propensity score matching, 405 patients were included in each group. The median followup duration was 9.1 years; the median ADT duration was 6 months. In the ADT versus non-ADT groups, the 9-year bFFR, local recurrence-free rate, and overall survival rate were 93.4% versus 87.8% (p = 0.016), 96.9% versus 98.1% (p = 0.481), and 88.1% versus 90.4% (p = 0.969), respectively. On multivariate analyses, Gleason score (hazard ratio [HR]: 2.52, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.58–4.03) and ADT use (HR: 0.55, 95% CI: 0.34–0.89) were associated with biochemical failure. Supplemental external beam radiation therapy use (HR: 0.38, 95% CI: 0.16–0.91) was associated with lower local recurrence rates. Age (HR: 1.12, 95% CI: 1.08–1.16) and comorbidities (HR: 1.56, 95% CI: 1.04–2.34) were associated with all-cause mortality. Conclusions: A risk-benefit assessment between bFFR improvement and the potential side effects of adding ADT to brachytherapy-based radiotherapy is warranted before incorporating ADT as routine practice.

  • Time to achieve a prostate-specific antigen nadir of ≤0.2 ng/mL and related factors after permanent prostate brachytherapy

    　View Summary

    Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the time to achieve a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) nadir of ≤0.2 ng/mL and the related factors to achieve this goal. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 2218 Japanese prostate cancer patients who received 125I brachytherapy with or without external beam radiotherapy between 2003 and 2013 at one institution. Among them, patients followed up for ≥72 months and without luteinizing hormone–releasing hormone (LH-RH) agonist/antagonist were included (total of 1089 patients). The time to a PSA nadir of ≤0.2 ng/mL (months) was defined as the time between the date of implantation and the first time the lowest PSA value reached ≤0.2 ng/mL. Biochemical recurrence (BCR) was determined using the Phoenix definition. Multivariate linear regression analysis was performed to detect the related factors to achieve this nadir. Results: We assigned 409, 592, and 88 patients to the low-, intermediate-risk, and high-risk groups, respectively. The median followup time was 9.5 years. The median time to achieve a PSA nadir of ≤0.2 ng/mL was 44.0 (95% confidence interval: 42.3–45.7) months. The percentage of patients that achieved the nadir was 89.1%. BCR was noted in 107 (9.8%) patients. In the multivariate analysis of patients without BCR, younger age, larger prostate volume at implantation, higher initial PSA level, and monotherapy were significantly associated with longer time to achieve the PSA nadir. Conclusion: The median time to achieve a PSA nadir of ≤0.2 ng/mL was 44.0 months. Some patients, however, may require a lengthy period of time to do so.

    　View Summary

    Introduction: In patients with esophageal cancer, occurrence of severe radiation-induced lymphopenia during chemoradiation therapy has been associated with worse progression-free and overall survival. The aim of this study was to develop and validate a pretreatment clinical nomogram for the prediction of grade 4 lymphopenia. Methods and Materials: A development set of consecutive patients who underwent chemoradiation therapy for esophageal cancer and an independent validation set of patients from another institution were identified. Grade 4 lymphopenia was defined as an absolute lymphocyte count nadir during chemoradiation therapy of <0.2 × 103/μL. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to create a prediction model for grade 4 lymphopenia in the development set, which was internally validated using bootstrapping and externally validated by applying the model to the validation set. The model was presented as a nomogram yielding 4 risk groups. Results: Among 860 included patients, 322 (37%) experienced grade 4 lymphopenia. Higher age, larger planning target volume in interaction with lower body mass index, photon- rather than proton-based therapy, and lower baseline absolute lymphocyte count were predictive in the final model (corrected c-statistic, 0.76). External validation in 144 patients, among whom 58 (40%) had grade 4 lymphopenia, yielded a c-statistic of 0.71. Four nomogram-based risk groups yielded predicted risk rates of 10%, 24%, 43%, and 70%, respectively. Conclusions: A pretreatment clinical nomogram was developed and validated for the prediction of grade 4 radiation-induced lymphopenia during chemoradiation therapy for esophageal cancer. The nomogram can risk stratify individual patients suitable for lymphopenia-mitigating strategies or potential future therapeutic approaches to ultimately improve survival.

  • A multidisciplinary approach to soft-tissue sarcoma of the extremities

    Expert Review of Anticancer Therapy (Expert Review of Anticancer Therapy)   2020

    ISSN  14737140

    　View Summary

    Introduction: Soft-tissue sarcoma (STS) denotes a group of rare and highly heterogeneous malignant tumors of mesenchymal origin. Accurate histological diagnosis is critical for selecting appropriate treatment. Complete tumor resection is the primary treatment for STS, and the efficacies of radiotherapy and chemotherapy have been tested in the adjuvant setting to improve oncological outcomes. Because most STS lesions arise in the extremities, preserving limb function and managing limb impairment after radical local treatment represent significant challenges. Areas covered: This article reviews the current front-line treatments for patients with extremity STS and discusses the multidisciplinary team-based efforts needed to improve oncological outcomes and survivorship. Expert opinion: Given the rarity, variety, and complexity of STS, a multidisciplinary approach involving experts in various disciplines is vital for improving outcomes in patients ranging from diagnosis to survivorship. A major challenge is building a sustainable system in each region permitting all patients with extremity STS to be treated at high-volume centers with multidisciplinary teams dedicated to this rare and complex disease.

    © 2017 Elsevier B.V. Background and purpose: Circulating lymphocytes are exquisitely sensitive to radiation exposure, even to low scattered doses which can vary drastically between radiation modalities. We compared the relative risk of radiation-induced lymphopenia between intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) or proton beam therapy (PBT) in esophageal cancer (EC) patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemoradiation therapy (nCRT). Material and methods: EC patients treated with IMRT and PBT were propensity matched based on key clinical variables. Treatment-associated lymphopenia was graded using CTCAE v.4.0. Using matched cohorts, univariate and multivariable multiple logistic regression was used to identify factors associated with increased risk of grade 4 lymphopenia as well as characterize their relative contributions. Results: Among the 480 patients treated with nCRT, 136 IMRT patients were propensity score matched with 136 PBT patients. In the matched groups, a greater proportion of the IMRT patients (55/136, 40.4%) developed grade 4 lymphopenia during nCRT compared with the PBT patients (24/136, 17.6%, P < 0.0001). On multivariable analysis, PBT was significantly associated with a reduction in grade 4 lymphopenia risk (odds ratio, 0.29; 95% confidence interval, 0.16–0.52; P < 0.0001). Conclusion: PBT is associated with significant risk reduction in grade 4 lymphopenia during nCRT in esophageal cancer.

    　View Summary

    前立腺癌小線源治療に関する臨床データ、dose-volumeデータ、生物学的データをニューラルネットワークの手法を用いて統合分析し、有害事象および生化学的（あるいは病理学的）再発を予測するモデルを構築することを目指し、研究を開始した。
    令和元年度は、小線源治療後の晩期有害事象、特に直腸出血の予測モデル構築に着手した。当初の研究計画では、予測モデルとしてニューラルネットワークを用いたモデル構築を想定していたが、より精度の高い予測モデルを構築するため、ニューラルネットワークに限らず、他の機械学習手法（サポートベクターマシンやランダムフォレストなど）も同時に比較検討した。その結果、機械学習を用いた直腸出血の予測モデルは、従来有用と考えられてきた直腸出血の予測因子よりも高い予測精度を示すことがわかった。また、機械学習手法間の予測精度の差異についても比較検討を行った。以上の成果について、日本放射線腫瘍学会の学術大会で発表を行った。
    また、精度の高い予測モデルを構築するために、質の良いデータベースの構築が必須である。特に、予測モデルを構築するための訓練データとは別に予測モデルを検証するためのテストデータも使えると理想的であるため、訓練データとは全く別の前立腺癌小線源治療患者のコホートを用いたテストデータの蓄積に着手している。訓練データとは全く別のコホートを用いたテストデータでモデルを検証することでモデルの信頼性・汎用性が高まることが期待される。

    直腸出血を予測するモデルを構築した経験を活かし、小線源治療後の他の有害事象や、生化学的再発あるいは臨床的再発部位を予測するモデルを構築していく。再発時の病理結果をモデルに組み込むことで、生化学的再発だけでなく、病理学的再発や、再発と紛らわしいPSA bounceの予測モデル構築にもチャレンジできると考えている。訓練データ・テストデータの量が大きくなり計算に時間がかかることも予想される。その場合には適宜新たなコンピュータの導入を検討していく。
