Abstract:Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for the treatment of patients with unresectable liver metastasis. Methods:Data of 28 patients with unresectable liver metastases were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were admitted to the Shanghai East Hospital from March 2018 to November 2019. Patients underwent 4D-CT or respiration gating for CT simulation. The prescription dose for the liver metastasis was 50 Gy in 10 fractions. Results:All patients successfully completed the SBRT treatment. The median overall survival was 7.4 months. The six months and one-year survival rates were 95.0% and 70.1%, respectively. The local control rate for one year was 92.2%. The most common toxicity was grade Ⅰ or Ⅱ nausea, poor appetite, and abdominal pain. No grade Ⅲ or worse toxicity was found. Conclusions:SBRT with 50 Gy in 10 fractions is a safe and effective treatment for patients with unresectable liver metastasis.
