We report a retrospective study aiming to assess the outcome of patients with MBM treated with COMBO with or without sequential/concomitant stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT). Methods: MBM patients treated with COMBO with or without SRT have been retrieved: demographics, steroid treatment, Central Nervous System [CNS]-related symptoms, BRAF status, radiotherapy (yes/no and timing) or surgery, number of MBM, maximum diameter of metastasis, overall response rate (ORR), progression-free (PFS) and overall survival (OS) have been analyzed. Results: 453 patients were included: 190 received COMBO alone, 107 received COMBO and concomitant SRT, 156 COMBO and sequential SRT, respectively. At multivariable analysis the line of treatment [> 1st vs 1st: HR 2.60 (1.93-3.50)], sequential SRT vs no radiotherapy [HR 0.45 (0.32-0.64)], concomitant SRT vs no radiotherapy [HR 0.48 (0.33-0.69)], steroids [HR 1.56 (1.17-2.08)], age [HR 1.01 (1.00-1.02)] and number of MBM [≥ 3 vs 1 HR 1.55 (1.11-2.17)), 2 vs 1 HR 1.53 (1.02-2.31)] at baseline were associated with OS. There was no significant difference between patients who received concomitant vs sequential SRT. At a median follow-up of 29 months, the median-OS in the overall population was 17.8 months while in those who received SRT was 27.3 (15.3-39.4) for patients receiving sequential radiotherapy and 22.2 (12.7-31.7) for those receiving radiotherapy concomitantly to COMBO. The incidence of radionecrosis was 10.3 %. Toxicities were consistent with previous studies. Conclusions: Our results suggest a better OS in patients who receive SRT plus COMBO, regardless of timing of SRT. Prospective studies are needed to validate our findings. http://hdl.handle.net/11351/13503 Cervell - Càncer - Immunoteràpia Cervell - Càncer - Radioteràpia Quimioteràpia combinada Metàstasi Melanoma - Immunoteràpia Melanoma - Radioteràpia ANALYTICAL, DIAGNOSTIC AND THERAPEUTIC TECHNIQUES, AND EQUIPMENT::Therapeutics::Therapeutics::Drug Therapy::Antineoplastic Protocols::Therapeutics::Drug Therapy::Antineoplastic Combined Chemotherapy Protocols DISEASES::Neoplasms::Neoplasms by Site::Nervous System Neoplasms::Central Nervous System Neoplasms::Brain Neoplasms DISEASES::Neoplasms::Neoplasms by Histologic Type::Neoplasms, Germ Cell and Embryonal::Neuroectodermal Tumors::Neuroendocrine Tumors::Melanoma Other subheadings::Other subheadings::/therapy ANALYTICAL, DIAGNOSTIC AND THERAPEUTIC TECHNIQUES, AND EQUIPMENT::Therapeutics::Biological Therapy::Immunomodulation::Immunotherapy ANALYTICAL, DIAGNOSTIC AND THERAPEUTIC TECHNIQUES, AND EQUIPMENT::Therapeutics::Radiotherapy DISEASES::Neoplasms::Neoplastic Processes::Neoplasm Metastasis TÉCNICAS Y EQUIPOS ANALÍTICOS, DIAGNÓSTICOS Y TERAPÉUTICOS::terapéutica::terapéutica::farmacoterapia::protocolos antineoplásicos::terapéutica::farmacoterapia::protocolos de quimioterapia antineoplásica combinada ENFERMEDADES::neoplasias::neoplasias por localización::neoplasias del sistema nervioso::neoplasias del sistema nervioso central::neoplasias cerebrales ENFERMEDADES::neoplasias::neoplasias por tipo histológico::neoplasias de células germinales y embrionarias::tumores neuroectodérmicos::tumores neuroendocrinos::melanoma Otros calificadores::Otros calificadores::/terapia TÉCNICAS Y EQUIPOS ANALÍTICOS, DIAGNÓSTICOS Y TERAPÉUTICOS::terapéutica::terapia biológica::inmunomodulación::inmunoterapia TÉCNICAS Y EQUIPOS ANALÍTICOS, DIAGNÓSTICOS Y TERAPÉUTICOS::terapéutica::radioterapia ENFERMEDADES::neoplasias::procesos neoplásicos::metástasis neoplásica Combined immunotherapy with nivolumab and ipilimumab with and without sequential or concomitant stereotactic radiotherapy in patients with melanoma brain metastasis: An international retrospective study
