Aims: We aimed to evaluate the treatment outcomes and associated prognostic factors in breast cancer (BC) patients who had bone-only oligometastatic disease (OMD) and we tried to determine the subgroup that would benefit most from stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR).
Materials And Methods: We enrolled 47 patients with a total of 63 lesions with bone-only oligometastatic BC who underwent SABR for all bone lesions between July 2013 and March 2022. Cases with bone-only metastatic disease with up to 5 metastatic lesions that can be safely treated with SABR were included in this study. All statistical analyses were performed using SPSS 23.0 software (SPSS, Chicago, IL).
Results: The median follow-up time was 34 months. The 2- and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates were 90% and 66%, and the progression-free survival (PFS) rates were 49% and 29%, respectively. The local control rate in the SABR-treated foci was 85%. In multivariate analysis, OMD state (genuine vs. induced), de-novo OMD state (synchronous vs. metachronous), and histology (luminal vs. HER-2 enriched) were prognostic for OS. Molecular subtype switch was observed in 21 (42%) patients, and 0% PFS was observed in 5 years in patients with phenotypic discordance. SABR was well tolerated and there were no ≥grade 4 acute or late toxicities.
Conclusion: Our study showed that in patients with bone-only OMD, in HER2-enriched subtypes with genuine & de-novo & synchronous OMD, SABR should be strongly considered for all metastatic foci, especially if there is phenotypic discordance in the primary tumor and metastasis.

Objectives: Whether to perform local radiotherapy on metastatic bone for primary bone-only oligometastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients remains unclear. Therefore, we analyzed the treatment methods and their survival and developed a prognostic model to predict outcomes and guide personalized treatment.
Materials And Methods: We studied 308 primary bone-only oligometastatic NPC patients who were treated with either palliative chemotherapy (PCT) alone, PCT combined with locoregional radiotherapy (LRRT), or PCT, LRRT, and radiotherapy to metastatic bones (bRT).

The vast majority of hormone positive and HER2 negative advanced breast cancers can be controlled well by endocrine therapy combined with the groundbreaking use of CDK4/6 inhibitors in the metastatic first-line setting. Approximately 50%-60% of these patients have "bone-only" metastatic disease. In oligometastatic cases or if a certain number of uncontrolled lesions develop during the aforementioned therapy, ablative radiotherapy can be delivered or, in symptomatic cases, urgent irradiation is needed with palliative intent.

Background: In prostate cancer (PCa), questions remain on indications for prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET) imaging and PSMA radioligand therapy, integration of advanced imaging in nomogram-based decision-making, dosimetry, and development of new theranostic applications.
Objective: We aimed to critically review developments in molecular hybrid imaging and systemic radioligand therapy, to reach a multidisciplinary consensus on the current state of the art in PCa.
Design, Setting, And Participants: The results of a systematic literature search informed a two-round Delphi process with a panel of 28 PCa experts in medical or radiation oncology, urology, radiology, medical physics, and nuclear medicine.

Background: Whether disease burden in patients with metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC) predicts treatment outcomes is unknown. We assessed apalutamide treatment effect in TITAN patients with mCSPC by disease volume, metastasis number and timing of metastasis presentation.
Methods: These protocol-defined and post hoc analyses of the phase III randomised TITAN study evaluated clinical outcomes in patients receiving 240 mg/day apalutamide (n = 525) or placebo (n = 527) plus androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT).
