Do you offer consolidative radiation for oligometastatic breast cancer?
In a patient with invasive breast cancer with 5 osseous oligometastases who has a complete response in the breast and metastases on PET/CT while on systemic therapy, is there any benefit to local therapy to either the primary or metastases?
Answer from: Radiation Oncologist at Community Practice
Not routinely, as prospective randomized trials have not shown any survival advantage.
