Abstract:
Objective:To compare the efficacy and side effects between simultaneous and sequential integrated boost intensity-modulated radiotherapy after operation for high-grade glioma.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed 142 patients with high-grade glioma who underwent postoperative radiotherapy from January 2010 to December 2017. All patients were divided into the simultaneous and sequential integrated boost intensity-modulated radiotherapy groups. Concurrent temozolomide chemotherapy was delivered during radiotherapy in two groups. The follow-up outcomes were statistically compared between two groups.Results:For the whole group, the median overall survival (OS) was 24 months, the median progression-free survival (PFS) was 17 months, and the median disease-free survival (DFS) was 25 months. In the simultaneous and sequential integrated boost intensity-modulated radiotherapy groups, the median OS were 27.2 and 21.0 months ( P=0.950), the median PFS were 21.2 and 15.0 months ( P=0.21), and the median DFS were 28.0 and 18.0 months ( P=0.171), and the disease control rates were 92.86% and 85.17%( P=0.541), respectively. There was no statistical difference in OS, PFS, DFS, short-term efficacy and side effects between two groups. However, the conformity index in the simultaneous integrated boost intensity-modulated radiotherapy group was better than that in the sequential integrated boost intensity-modulated radiotherapy group ( P=0.032). Conclusions:Postoperative simultaneous and sequential integrated boost intensity-modulated radiotherapy yield no statistical differences in the survival, short-term efficacy and side effects in the treatment of high-grade glioma. However, the conformity index in the simultaneous integrated boost intensity-modulated radiotherapy group is significantly better, which can be recommended for postoperative radiotherapy of high-grade glioma.
