Oligometastasis

Bladder cancer is the most common type of urothelial cancer. When the disease has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic disease), the prognosis is often poor, because there are only a few effective treatment options available. At the moment, standard treatment mainly includes systemic therapies, such as chemotherapy and immunotherapy (immune checkpoint inhibitors). These treatments act on the whole body. However, the use of local treatments, such as stereotactic radiotherapy, has not been well studied in bladder cancer. Stereotactic radiotherapy is a type of radiation treatment that delivers very high doses of radiation to the tumor in a small number of treatment sessions. This technique is already widely used to treat a limited number of metastases (called oligometastases) from other types of cancer. The aim of this study is to understand whether stereotactic radiotherapy is also effective and safe for treating oligometastases coming from bladder cancer.

This phase II trial studies how well chemotherapy with or without radiation or surgery works in treating participants with esophageal or gastric cancer that has spread to less than 3 places in the body (oligometastatic). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fluorouracil and capecitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Surgery, such as complete surgical resection, may stop the spread of tumor cells by surgically removing organs or tumors. Giving chemotherapy with radiation or surgery may work better than chemotherapy alone in treating participants with oligometastatic esophageal or gastric cancer.

This is a prospective, open-label, multi-center seamless phase II to phase III randomized clinical trial designed to compare SST with or without PET-directed local therapy in improving the castration-resistant prostate cancer-free survival (CRPC-free survival) for Veterans with oligometastatic prostate cancer. Oligometastasis will be defined as 1-10 sites of metastatic disease based on the clinical determination of the LSI which incorporates all imaging, clinical, and pathologic data available.

This study is for participants whose cancer is oligometastatic, meaning it has spread to up to five spots in their body and their doctor recommends that they have stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) to treat these cancer sites. SBRT is a type of radiation therapy that may help people with oligometastatic disease live longer without cancer progression. SBRT is usually given in addition to other cancer treatments, like chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or hormone therapy. Preparing for SBRT can take up to a week or longer. This can make it harder for participants to receive SBRT and coordinate care. This can also mean a longer time until symptoms from cancer sites improve. Doctors would like to treat oligometastatic cancers more quickly by reducing the time it takes to plan for the SBRT. The typical workflow for SBRT includes doctors doing a simulation which requires a CT (Computerized Tomography) scan. The CT scan is used to create a treatment plan. It can take time to schedule this CT scan and then it normally takes another 5-10 days to create a treatment plan. A way to reduce the planning time for SBRT is to use the CT scan (or other radiology scan types, like magnetic resonance imaging \[MRI\] or positron emission tomography \[PET\]) that participants had when their cancer was diagnosed to plan their SBRT. This eliminates the scheduling of an additional CT scan and the 5-10 day planning time. This is called CTsim-free (CT simulation-free) treatment planning. CT-sim-free radiation therapy planning has been shown to be effective in treating cancers that are causing pain in people with more advanced or widespread cancers. This study is being done to find out if it is safe and effective to use CTsim-free planning for SBRT to treat oligometastases.

Oligometastatic breast cancer is a condition in which breast cancer has spread to a small number of other parts of the body. Patients with this type of disease may live longer than those with more widespread metastases. In addition to standard treatments that act on the whole body, such as chemotherapy or hormonal therapy, these patients might also benefit from local treatments that directly target the cancer spots. One of these local treatments is stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), a non-invasive radiation treatment that delivers high doses of radiation in a few sessions. In the past, most of the evidence about the benefit of local treatments came from surgery. More recently, there has been growing interest in SBRT because it does not require surgery. However, the results of studies so far have not been consistent.The goal of this multicenter retrospective study is to better understand whether SBRT can improve disease control and survival in patients with breast cancer that has spread to a limited number of sites outside the brain.

OLIGAMI trial is a multi-institutional, two-arm, open-label, randomized controlled phase III trial being conducted with the participation of 50 hospitals belonging to Japan Clinical Oncology Group. After the first registration, all patients will be performed in a 12-week, subtype-specific, systemic therapy consisting of CDK4/6 inhibitors with hormonal therapy for luminal BC, docetaxel with trastuzumab and pertuzumab for HER2-positive BC, chemotherapy with immune checkpoint inhibitors for triple-negativeBC expressing PD-L1, and olaparib for cases harboring BRCA mutations. For other triple-negative BC, chemotherapy will be administered. If this 12-week systemic therapy does not cause any progression or complete response, patients proceed to second registration for randomization; arm A continues same systemic therapy alone, and arm B performs MDT followed by same systemic therapy. The MDT will involve either RT or surgery, and RT will involve mainly SBRT and partly conventional RT.

The purpose of this study is to provide a registry of participants in order to assess the acute adverse event rates following ablative radiotherapy for metastatic disease.

This protocol is comprised of three unblinded, randomized, single-center studies to evaluate the impact of immediate versus three-month delayed comprehensive ablative treatment on survival in newly diagnosed metastatic patients with lung (Trial 1), colorectal (Trial 2), and prostate (Trial 3) cancers

The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SABR) in patients with oligometastatic or oligoprogressive cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. oncologic outcomes (progression-free survival, local failure rate), 2. patient-reported outcomes, 3. physician-assessed toxicity, and 4. dynamics of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) for biomarker analysis.

Ablation has been an effective therapy in treating intrathoracic metastases. However, for hepatocellular carcinoma with pulmonary oligometastasis, ablation of metastases remains relatively unexplored and still needs clinical evidence.

This is a randomized open-label multicentre Phase III superiority study of the effect of adding SBRT to the standard of care treatment on overall survival in patients with rare oligometastatic cancers. Patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio between current standard of care treatment vs. standard of care treatment + SBRT to all sites of known metastatic disease. The primary objective of this trial is to assess if the addition of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) to standard of care treatment improves overall survival (OS) as compared to standard of care treatment alone in patients with rare oligometastatic cancers.

Ablation has been an effective approach for treating intrathoracic metastases. However, for hepatocellular carcinoma with oligometastasis, ablation of metastases remains relatively unexplored.

The aim is to investigate whether the addition of short-term androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) during 1 month or short-term ADT during 6 months together with an androgen receptor targeted therapy (ARTA) to metastasis-directed therapy (MDT) significantly prolongs poly-metastatic free survival (PMFS) and/or metastatic castration-refractory prostate cancer free survival (mCRPC-FS) in patients with oligorecurrent hormone sensitive prostate cancer.

PSMA-PET/CT or PSMA-PET/MRI are more accurate imaging modalities compared to CT/BS; in approximately 10-20% of high-risk patients diagnosed using conventional imaging PSMA-PET up-stages the disease. Therefore a substantial proportion of high-risk patients previously considered as non-metastatic are expected to be diagnosed with oligometastatic disease. While standard treatment pathways exist for patients with non-metastatic or oligometastatic disease confirmed using conventional imaging, less is known about the optimal management of patients with oligometastatic prostate cancer on PSMA-PET. Currently, data on the safety, effectiveness and oncologic outcomes of local therapies in oligometastatic patients diagnosed using PSMA-PET have been poorly reported so far. Thus, there is a need for a prospectively maintained database to collect real-world clinical data to produce high-quality research on the optimal management in oligometastatic prostate cancer who underwent PSMA-PET for primary staging and subsequent local therapy. This database will allow centers to retro- and prospectively collect data to facilitate analysis and assessment of the outcomes of oligometastatic patients managed with local therapy.
