1x8 Gy versus 5x4 Gy for metastatic epidural spinal cord compression [Elektronski vir] : a matched-pair study of three prognostic patient subgroupsRades, Dirk ...This study provides separate comparisons of 1 x 8 Gy to 5 x 4 Gy for metastatic epidural spinal cord compression (MESCC) in patients with poor, intermediate and favorable survival prognoses. METHODS: ... Patients receiving 1 x 8 Gy were matched to patients receiving 5 x 4 Gy for age, gender, performance status, tumor type, involved vertebrae, other bone metastases, visceral metastases, interval between tumor diagnosis and MESCC, ambulatory status and time developing motor deficits. From a study including patients with poor (N = 156) or intermediate (N = 86) survival prognoses, subgroup analyses were performed. Furthermore, 232 new patients with favorable prognoses matched the same way were included. RESULTS: In poor prognoses patients, 6-month survival rates were 10% after 1 x 8 Gy and 6% after 5 x 4 Gy (p = 0.38); in-field reRT rates in few patients alive at 6 months were 15 and 2% (p = 0.16). In intermediate prognoses patients, 6-month survival rates were 49% after 1 x 8 Gy and 58% after 5 x 4 Gy (p = 0.30). ReRT rates at 6 months were 23 and 13% (p = 0.25). In favorable prognoses patients, 6-month survival rates were 89% after 1 x 8 Gy and 91% after 5 x 4 Gy. ReRT rates at 6 months were 14 and 3% (p = 0.007). In no subgroup, RT regimen had a significant impact on motor function. CONCLUSIONS: Since in patients with poor prognoses, outcomes after 1 x 8 Gy and 5 x 4 Gy were not significantly different, 1 x 8 Gy may be an option. In patients with intermediate prognoses, a trend was found in favor of 5 x 4 Gy. In patients with favorable prognoses, need for in-field reRT was greater after 1 x 8 Gy.Source: Radiation oncology [Elektronski vir]. - ISSN 1748-717X (Vol. 13, no. 1, Feb. 2018)Type of material - e-articlePublish date - 2018Language - englishCOBISS.SI-ID - 2865531
