Treatment outcomes of stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy on oligometastases from colorectal cancer: early results of a single institution service evaluation.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Objective: Stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) has been suggested to be an effective non-invasive ablative therapy for oligometastases originated from colorectal cancer (CRC). This study aimed to report CRC oligometastases SABR treatment outcomes in terms of overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS) and post-treatment toxicities. Methods: Treatment records of patients with CRC metachronous oligometastases who underwent SABR at a single institution between February 2015 and December 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. OS and PFS were calculated using Kaplan-Meier statistics and post-RT toxicity data was scored following CTCAE v. 4.0. Analysis of prognostic factors on OS and PFS was performed based on site of primary cancer, types of treatment to primary cancer, number of oligometastases, SABR treatment sites, intervals between treatment to primary cancer and SABR to oligometastases, biological equivalent dose, cumulative gross tumour volume and planning target volume. Results: 75 patients with 86 CRC metachronous oligometastases (including liver, lung, lymph nodes and bone) were included. The median age was 65.5 years (range 42.5-87.2) with a median follow-up of 23.8 months (range 3.1-46.5). The estimated median PFS was 14.6 months (95% CI 9.6-19.6). and estimated median OS was 33.3 months (95% CI 22.9-43.7). Majority of patients tolerated SABR well with the most common acute side-effects of Grade 1 fatigue. No Grade 3 or higher toxicities were reported at any time points.Only SABR treatment sites ( Conclusion: This study showed modest PFS, OS, and post-treatment toxicity outcomes on SABR to metachronous oligometastases from CRC. It has highlighted that cumulative tumour volume may be a stronger prognostic factor of OS comparing to the number of metastases. Advances in knowledge: There are limited data published on the efficacy and post-treatment toxicity of CRC oligometastases SABR with adequate length of follow-up. Our retrospective study suggests that cumulative tumour volume may be a stronger prognostic factor of OS comparing to the number of oligometastases.
