Prophylactic Cranial Irradiation

Pro’s ‐ significant (2 fold) reduction of BM improvement QoL (?)

‐ marginal survival benefit ‐ LD 3 yrs survival 15.3 to 20.7% ‐ ED 5.4 to 6.7 months

Con’s ‐ no 100% prevention of BM‐ neuro cognitive toxicity

The key‐role of the hippocampus

First results HA‐WBRT RTOG 0933 in pts with brain mets

• HA  was associated with memory and quality of life preservation  

‐ Pts with brain mets received HA‐WBRT of 30 Gy in 10 fractions‐ The dose received by the hippocampus did not exceed 10 Gy‐ The risk of developing a new metastasis in the hippocampus was 4.5%.‐ 42 pts at 4 months post‐RT had a 7% decline in HVLT vs 30% decline   in an historical control group (WBRT without HA)

PCI

full PCI HA-PCI • Monitoring cognitive sequelae : Neuro-cognitive tests6 times: Baseline and 4/8/12/18/24

• Repeat MRI

•Does HA-PCI increase QoL?• 168 pts will be included •10 fractions up to 25 Gy

R

Study endpoints: 

Primary endpoint:• The total recall score of the Hopkins Verbal Learning Test–Revised 

assessed at 4 months after PCI. A decline in the total recall score of 5 points or greater will be considered a failure.

Secondary endpoints:• Neurocognitive functioning and QOL, motor function• Assessment of structural and functional brain abnormalities • Incidence and location of brain metastases• Overall survival• Progression free survival• Biomarkers (neuro‐inflammation)

HA-PCI technique• Irradiation of the brain (25 Gy), while sparing the hippocampus (as

low as possible)• Challenging! This requires a very steep dose gradient

• Definition of PTV?? – There is no GTV/CTV

• Then what about margins?– PTV = Brain – (Hippocampi + 5mm)
