Fabio Arcidiacono, Radiation Oncologist at S.Maria Hospital, shared a post on X about a recent article he and his colleagues co-authored, published in IJROBP – The Red Journal:
“I’m excited and proud to share the update of the STARTNEWERA phase II trial! Now in press on IJROBP – The Red Journal the 5-y survival and safety of SAbR in unresectable LA-NSCLC unfit for concurrent RT-ChT:focus on patterns of local recurrence!
- 23 patients SAbR alone
- 20 patients sequential ChT – >SAbR
- 7 patients sequential ChT->SAbR – >IO
76% of primary tumor was central
100% primary tumor and/or nodal overlapped central OAR
SIB and personalised SIP were implemented
Median FU 72months
No G3 toxicity
Median thoracic nodal recurrence-FS not reached
5-y 65%
Median distant progression-FS not reached
5-y 60%
92% oligo-M recurrence to SAbR
Median PFS 13 months
5-y PFS 26%
Median OS 53 months
3-y OS 70%
5-y OS 46%
17 patients had in-field local recurrence
Median LR-FS was not reached
5-y LR-FS 64%
Strong predictors LR
- squamous cell carcinoma
- SAbR dose <40Gy
The long-term outcomes of the #STARTNEWERA non randomized phase II trial confirm
- efficacy
- safety
SAbR in LA-NSCLC
1trial to investigate SAbR IO combination
SIB and SIP could explain low toxicity and can allow us to safely in the “no-fly” zone “to go”under 40 Gy
Thanks IJROBP – The Red Journal
Editorial Team,Editor in Chief Sue Yom for continuing believe in our trial giving us great opportunity to publish it in IJROBP – The Red Journal.
We are honored! Other great step for SAbR LA-NSCLC. Thanks patients and families.”
