Early Stage Hepatocellular Carcinoma Treated With Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy: A Pooled Analysis From Two North American Institutions.

350Background: To report outcomes of pooled data from patients with early stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treated with stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) at two North American Institutions. Methods: An IRB approved collaborative review of patients with HCC treated with radical intent SBRT was conducted. Inclusion criteria included patients with Stage I-IIIA HCC (UICC/AJCC 7th Ed.) treated with SBRT (≥ 4.5 Gy/ fraction) from June 2003 until Dec 2016. Patients who were treated with SBRT were ineligible for resection, percutaneous ablative or hepatic intravascular therapies. Patients with vascular invasion and those treated with palliative intent (e.g. HCC rupture) were excluded. Overall survival, local control and toxicity of treatment were reviewed retrospectively. Results: Of 310 eligible patients, 23% were Child-Pugh (CP) class B/C (21%/2%), and 40% had failed prior liver directed therapies. The median HCC diameter was 2.4 cm (range 0.5-18.1 cm), and the median prescribed dose was 39 Gray (G...
