Radiologist Dr. Julian Hong plains how stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is used to treat oligometastatic prostate cancer—cases where cancer has spread but only to a few limited sites. This approach targets small clusters of metastases with high-dose, image-guided radiation in five or fewer sessions. Hong reviews clinical trial evidence showing that adding focal radiation can improve outcomes, especially when all visible metastases are treated. He highlights the value of modern imaging, like PET scans, in identifying lesions and shaping personalized treatment plans. Studies suggest SBRT offers effective disease control with low toxicity and minimal impact on quality of life, making it a promising option for patients with limited metastatic spread.

This week on The Beat, CTSNet Editor-in-Chief Joel Dunning speaks with Tom D'Amico, professor and vice chairman of surgery and chief medical officer of the Duke Cancer Institute, about oligometastatic disease. They discuss the current updates of oligometastatic disease, The Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) guidelines on the surgical management of oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer, and the importance of choosing the right patient. They also explore where the new boundaries of this procedure are, radiation therapy, and shared decision-making. Joel also highlights a surgical robot (spaceMIRA) at the International Space Station that completed its first surgery demo in zero gravity, the state of lung transplants in the United Kingdom, and the Priority Setting Partnership (PSP).   Joel also reviews recent JANS articles on perioperative extra corporeal membrane oxygenation in neonates with transposition of the great arteries, a randomized controlled trial on the effects of postoperative glucocorticoids on mitigation of organ dysfunction in patients with Type A aortic dissection, if socioeconomic factors impair uptake of neoadjuvant therapy for patients with locoregional esophageal cancer, and a nationwide analysis on malperfusion in patients with acute Type A aortic dissection.  In addition, Joel explores a case report on a chest injury with an arrow penetrating the right lung with rent in the right atrium, an interview with Marko Turina, and an Onyx mechanical mitral valve replacement after previous mitral repair. Before closing, he highlights upcoming events in CT surgery.   JANS Items Mentioned  1.)

Today, our intrepid trio once more plunge down 20,000 leagues, exploring the confusing depths, hoping to answer one question: is there any evidence to support using systemic therapy in patients with potentially resectable oligometastatic colorectal cancer? The answer will take them to many dark, barely-explored corners of their profession and will raise more questions than answers. Following in the forebears of many explorers, it may drive them completely mad, or at least madder than they already are. But, to paraphrase Captain Nemo of the Nautilus: "the Earth does not want new continents, but new evidence for patients with resectable metastatic colorectal cancer."Links to studies discussed in this episode (subscription may be required):OLIVIA: https://www.annalsofoncology.org/article/S0923-7534(19)31451-6/fulltext#ec0035Falcone et al.: https://ascopubs.org/doi/10.1200/JCO.2006.09.0928?url_ver=Z39.88-2003&rfr_id=ori:rid:crossref.org&rfr_dat=cr_pub%20%200pubmedTRIBE: https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanonc/article/PIIS1470-2045(15)00122- /fulltext#:~:text=TRIBE%20was%20an%20open%2Dlabel,were%20recruited%20from%2034%20ItalianFor more episodes, resources and blog posts, visit www.inquisitiveonc.comFind us on Twitter @InquisitiveOnc!If you want us to look at a specific trial or subject, email us at inquisitiveonc@gmail.comArt courtesy of Taryn SilverMusic courtesy of:- Music Unlimited: https://pixabay.com/users/music_unlimited-27600023/- SoulProdMusic: https://pixabay.com/users/soulprodmusic-30064790/Disclaimer: This podcast is for educational purposes only.

There is hope now for some men with prostate cancer that has spread outside of the prostate. A new consideration for therapy is emerging. In this episode, we introduce Oligometastatic Prostate Cancer, a clinical distinction that will be new to many podcast listeners. Dr. Leslie Ballas from USC is a radiation oncologist and prostate cancer expert, and she will walk you through it today. She will talk about targeting those lesions with radiation therapy, who may be potential candidates, and if there is any benefit to treating the prostate in those men, additionally. Be sure to listen in today to learn about Oligometastatic Prostate Cancer from Dr. Ballas. Dr. Leslie Ballas is an Associate Professor of Clinical Radiation Oncology at the University of Southern California Norris Cancer Hospital. She received her undergraduate degree from Cornell University in New York and her Medical Doctorate from the University of Michigan. She completed her internship in General Surgery at Weill-Cornell Medical Center and her residency in Radiation Oncology at Columbia Presbyterian Hospital in New York. After residency, Dr. Ballas spent time on the faculty at MD Anderson Cancer Center. Her research has focused on improving the quality of life for men with prostate cancer. She is involved in developing cancer treatment clinical trials for genitourinary cancers. She has brought multiple genitourinary cooperative studies to USC. Her clinical interests include advanced technology integration into cancer therapeutics, including image-guided radiation therapy, stereotactic body radiotherapy, and intensity-modulated radiotherapy. Dr. Ballas is also proficient at treating hematological malignancies, including leukemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma.  Disclaimer: The Prostate Health Podcast is for informational purposes only.

For more information and counseling, you must contact your personal physician or urologist with questions about your unique situation. Show highlights: What led Dr. Ballas down the path she has taken in her research, and with her clinical efforts. What the term Oligometastatic Prostate Cancer means. Dr. Ballas talks about a recent driver for better discovering Oligometastatic lesions. What the consideration is for appropriate candidates in the development of more therapeutic strategies for men with Oligometastatic Prostate Cancer. The rationale behind using therapy directed towards metastatic lesions. Dr. Ballas describes the technology that typically gets used for targeting the lesions. The safety aspect and potential side-effects of the technology used to target the lesions.  The people considered appropriate candidates for targeted therapy for metastatic lesions. Dr. Ballas discusses the benefits of additional treatment of the prostate for the candidates for targeted therapy.

Dr. Ken Pienta from The Johns Hopkins Hospital explains all about metastatic prostate cancer and how it spreads or metastasizes. He Includes in his discussion how prostate cancer is staged, how cancer migrates from the prostate gland to distant sites that can then develop into tumors. In this discussion He clarifies the difference between local invasion and metastatic disease. He also talks about the current reality of our scanning technology, including the new Axumin and PSMA scans and how large, or how many cells, need to be present in a tumor in order for it to be visualized. Dr. Pienta describes the current treatment issues surrounding oligometastatic prostate cancer (just a few tumors in the pelvic area) as well as the role of the tumor micro-environment in supporting the metastatic process. He also shared two clinical trials, the TED1 and the TED2 Trials (Total Obliteration Disease Trials) which he is conducting for newly diagnosed men with five or less metastatic lesions.

Prof Peter Naredi - University of Gothenburg, Gothenburg, Sweden Prof Naredi talks to ecancertv at ECC 2015 about the use of surgery in synchronous oligometastatic disease. In the interview he highlights that two to three decades ago it was rare that patients with metastatic disease would be referred for surgery. Today, however, patients who have multiple metastatic sites may still be considered candidates for surgery, particularly if the metastases are all in the same organ such as the liver or lung. Prof Naredi emphasizes the importance of the multidisciplinary team when treating patients with oligometastatic disease.
