Would you treat with consolidative SBRT for oligometastatic liver mets from HER2+ breast cancer if these lesions demonstrated radiographic CR/near-CR following neoadjuvant TCHP chemotherapy (and patient is receiving ongoing adjuvant HP therapy)?
Due to respiratory motion and resolution of the lesions on re-staging imaging, targeting the lesions on CT sim is extremely difficult. Also, is consolidative SBRT even indicated in the setting of CR/near CR of these lesions with HER2 directed therapy and patient's receipt of ongoing adjuvant HP therapy?
Answer from: Radiation Oncologist at Community Practice
I would not if radiographic CR or near CR. If there any suspicions of residual disease vs. scar, favor surgery, which will establish diagnosis and also take care of oligomets.
