Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SABR) for limited metastases

Cohort Study for Local Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy in Patients With Oligometastatic or Oligoprogressive Cancer

Samsung Medical Center · NCT07121335

This program tries stereotactic body radiotherapy (SABR) in people with up to five oligometastatic or oligoprogressive cancer lesions to see if it controls disease better, affects symptoms and side effects, and changes ctDNA in the blood.

What this trial studies

This is an observational cohort of patients with oligometastatic or oligoprogressive cancer who receive SABR to up to five lesions. Patients must have ECOG performance status 0–2 and imaging within four weeks confirming eligible lesions. Outcomes tracked include progression-free survival, local failure rate, physician-assessed toxicity, patient-reported outcomes, and serial circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) dynamics. Data will be used to describe safety, clinical outcomes, quality-of-life changes, and potential ctDNA biomarkers associated with response.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Adults with metastatic cancer who have up to five oligometastatic or oligoprogressive lesions, ECOG 0–2, no prior radiotherapy to the planned SABR site, and imaging confirming lesions within four weeks are eligible.

Not a fit: Patients with prior radiotherapy to the planned treatment site or with concurrent brain metastases are excluded and unlikely to benefit from enrollment.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the study could support use of SABR to improve local control and quality of life and help identify ctDNA signals that predict benefit.

How similar studies have performed: Randomized and cohort studies of SABR in oligometastatic disease have shown promising improvements in disease control and survival, while using ctDNA as a predictive biomarker remains novel and less established.
