Hypofractionated Versus Hyperfractionated Versus Conventionally Fractionated Thoracic Radiotherapy in Limited-Stage Small-Cell Lung Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Öz:
Objectives: It remains unclear whether hypofractionated (Hypo) thoracic radiotherapy (TRT) is superior to hyperfrac- tionated or conventionally fractionated (Con) TRT in limited-stage small-cell lung cancer. Methods: PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library were searched for eligible studies until April 30, 2023. The outcomes of interest were overall survival (OS), and grade ≥3 esophagitis and pneumonitis, reported as hazard ratios (HRs) or odds ratios (ORs) with their 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results: A total of 23 studies with 7987 patients were identified. Hypo-TRT showed similar OS compared to Hyper-TRT (HR = 1.22, 95% CI: 0.80-1.86 in randomized controlled trials [RCTs] and HR = 1.12, 95% CI: 0.99-1.28 in retrospective studies) and better OS compared to Con-TRT (HR =0.83, 95% CI: 0.70-0.97). Hyper-TRT achieved longer OS compared to Con-TRT in retrospective studies (HR = 0.91, 95% CI: 0.84-0.99), but not in RCTs (HR = 0.90, 95% CI: 0.80-1.01). There were no significant differences in incidence of grade ≥3 esophagitis or pneumonitis between the three schedules. Conclusion: Hyper-TRT (45 Gy) or Con-TRT (60-70 Gy) remains a standard schedule. Hypo-TRT (40-45 Gy) is likely to be an alternative regimen. Nevertheless, these findings need to be validated in large phase 3 RCTs.
