Abstract

Purpose

To investigate the dose–effect relationship between the dose–volume parameters of residual gross tumor volume (GTVres) and clinical prognosis in MRI image-guided adaptive brachytherapy (IGABT) of patients with locally advanced cervical cancer in our center.

Materials and method

The clinical data of 93 patients with locally advanced cervical squamous cell cancer who received external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) combined with IGABT ± chemotherapy in our center were retrospectively analyzed. The disease stage, overall treatment time (OTT), chemotherapy, and the dose–volume parameters D90, D98, and D100 of GTVres, the intermediate-risk clinical target volume (CTVIR), and the high-risk clinical target volume (CTVHR) of the patients were statistically analyzed. Kaplan–Meier and uni- and multivariable Cox regression analyses were used to analyze 2‑year overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and local control rate (LC). A probit model was employed to assess the dose–effect relationship between the volume and dose–volume parameters of GTVres and 2‑year OS, PFS, and LC.

Results

The median follow-up time was 19.6 months and 2‑year OS, PFS, and LC were 79.6%, 68.8%, and 94.6%, respectively. CTVHR D90 was an independent influencing factor for 2‑year PFS (P = 0.041); GTVresBT1 volume was an independent factor for 2‑year OS, PFS, and LC (P < 0.001). The probit model showed that at GTVresBT1 volume < 32.86 cm3, the expected 2‑year LC was > 90%; at GTVres D98 > 129.12 GyEQD2, the expected 2‑year OS was > 90%.

Conclusion

Both the volume and dose–volume parameters of GTVres are promising predictors in assessment of IGABT prognosis of cervical cancer.
