摘要

Background

Hepatic metastases of GIST might be the dominant site of progression and resistant to available tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). Selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) offers treatment by intratumoral radiation up to 200 Gy. We analyzed the hepatic progression-free survival (H-PFS) in a consecutive patient cohort.

Methods

Twenty-six patients (median age 57.6 years) with biopsy proven liver metastases of GIST were treated by SIRT. All had RECIST documented tumor progression, and 24/26 patients had up to four lines of pretreatment. Mutational status was ‘quadruple wildtype’ (q-wt, n = 5), KIT exon 11/9/13 in n = 15/4/1 cases and PDGFRα (n = 1). Median follow-up of this retrospective analysis of a prospectively kept database is 33.6 months.

Results

Median H-PFS was 16 months (range, 4–54+ months, 95% CI 6.5–25.4 months) and OS after SIRT was 28 months (95% CI 17.2–28.7 months). Best H-PFS was observed in patients with ‘q-wt’ at 25 months (range, 6+–54 months, 95% CI 16.2–33.8 months). The worst outcome was for KIT exon 11 mutations plus secondary mutations with 7 months (range, 4–33 months, 95% CI, 4.2–9.8 months).

Conclusions

90Y-SIRT is a potent treatment for patients with liver metastases of GIST resistant to TKI therapy. In patients with ‘q-wt’ GIST, SIRT is an option for first-line use.
