History of CK in Belgium• Construction of a dedicated
CK facility July-December 2009.
• Installation of the CK and acceptance January-April 2010.
• Go live in end of April 2010.
• Shut down in July and August (lack of competent RTT’s during summer holidays).
• In September 2011, >170 patients treated with the CK

Initiated projects
1. Translational research:– Predicting local response– Predicting DFS
2. Health economic analysis:– Markov models
3. Dosimetric comparison:– Within EUROCAT/ROCOCO
![Page 14: Cyberknife for lung tumors: the first Belgian experience at CHU-Liège + initiated research projects (Philippe A. Coucke) Nicolas Jansen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062500/56649ec15503460f94bcc712/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
1. Research project in NSCLC
• To predict response using the association of:– Biological markers– Imaging modalities
• A “single marker” is not reliable enough in predicting response, whether local or distant
![Page 15: Cyberknife for lung tumors: the first Belgian experience at CHU-Liège + initiated research projects (Philippe A. Coucke) Nicolas Jansen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062500/56649ec15503460f94bcc712/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Submitted to FNRSPredictive response and outcome in patients with early stage T1-T2 non-
small cell lung cancer treated by robotic CyberKnife®
• Promotors:
– Prof. P.A. Coucke, Radiotherapy– Prof A. Noël, Laboratory of Biology of Tumor Development– I Struman, PhD, Molecular Biology and Genetic Engineering– Prof. L. Willems, Molecular and Cellular Epigenetics– Prof. R. Hustinx, Nuclear Medicine
![Page 16: Cyberknife for lung tumors: the first Belgian experience at CHU-Liège + initiated research projects (Philippe A. Coucke) Nicolas Jansen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062500/56649ec15503460f94bcc712/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Trial design
• Bronchoscopy– Biopsy for pathology and confirmation of NSCLC– Laser micro-dissection for obtaining isolated tumor cells
• Double PET-CT:– First : in the context of CK® planning– Second : 15 days after treatment– Third : 90 days after treatment
• Cyberknife® treatment, standard technique– 3 x 20 Gy (peripheral) over 1 week– 3 x 15 Gy (central) over 1 week
![Page 17: Cyberknife for lung tumors: the first Belgian experience at CHU-Liège + initiated research projects (Philippe A. Coucke) Nicolas Jansen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062500/56649ec15503460f94bcc712/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• Primary endpoints:– Identify markers predicting:
• Local response after CyberKnife® treatment• Metastatic potential after CyberKnife® treatment
– Possible markers :• Angiogenesis• Micro-RNA• Circulating tumor cells
– Aim:• To determine which early-stage NSCLC might be eligible
for– Further dose-increase– Adjuvant chemotherapy
![Page 18: Cyberknife for lung tumors: the first Belgian experience at CHU-Liège + initiated research projects (Philippe A. Coucke) Nicolas Jansen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062500/56649ec15503460f94bcc712/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
• Secondary endpoints in the context of a comprehensive “outcome” analysis:– Prospective assessment of QoL after ablative
CyberKnife® treatment• To define utilities to feed a Markov model
– Evaluation of crude costs– Cost comparison to surgery and conventional
radiotherapy:• Direct & indirect costs • Cost/effectiveness • ICER/Qualy
![Page 19: Cyberknife for lung tumors: the first Belgian experience at CHU-Liège + initiated research projects (Philippe A. Coucke) Nicolas Jansen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062500/56649ec15503460f94bcc712/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Markers to predict response:
• Angiogenesis• marker for radiation response• angiogenesis remodeling : marker for tumor
progression and metastasis.• Hypoxic regions can be identified as markers of
radio-resistance and could possibly be specifically “targeted” = dose painting
![Page 20: Cyberknife for lung tumors: the first Belgian experience at CHU-Liège + initiated research projects (Philippe A. Coucke) Nicolas Jansen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062500/56649ec15503460f94bcc712/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Markers to predict response:
• Angiogenesis evaluation before and after the treatment– Angiogenic factors in circulation (immuno-assays):
• VEGF• bFGF• PDGF• Soluble VEGF-R1 , VEGF-R2 , VEGF-R3 (Endoglin - CD 105)
– Pre and post treatment PET-CT with 18FFPPRGD2 tracer binding to v3 integrin in endothelial cells, to visualize and possibly quantify angiogenesis near hypoxic areas
![Page 21: Cyberknife for lung tumors: the first Belgian experience at CHU-Liège + initiated research projects (Philippe A. Coucke) Nicolas Jansen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062500/56649ec15503460f94bcc712/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
The 18FFPPRGD2 tracer targets v3 integrin
v3 integrin is a trans-membrane receptor, located at the surface of endothelial cells and tumor cells.
v3 integrin expression is possibly linked to invasiveness and metastatic potential.
A hot spot indicates potentially angiogenesis and may be used as an early marker of response.It is an suitable marker for lung lesions, as there is no background signal in normal lung parenchyma.
![Page 22: Cyberknife for lung tumors: the first Belgian experience at CHU-Liège + initiated research projects (Philippe A. Coucke) Nicolas Jansen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062500/56649ec15503460f94bcc712/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Markers to predict response
• Micro-RNA:
– Search for miRNA signatures before the treatment
– Follow the miRNA signature after CK®, indicative of :
• Local recurrence
• Distant metastases
(retrospective study)
![Page 23: Cyberknife for lung tumors: the first Belgian experience at CHU-Liège + initiated research projects (Philippe A. Coucke) Nicolas Jansen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062500/56649ec15503460f94bcc712/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Markers to predict response
• Circulating Tumor Cells– Changes in number of CTC– Changes in phenotype of CTC
(laser micro-dissection to isolate cells from initial tumor)
• Analysis of transcriptome
• Analysis of presence or absence of specific mutations
![Page 24: Cyberknife for lung tumors: the first Belgian experience at CHU-Liège + initiated research projects (Philippe A. Coucke) Nicolas Jansen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062500/56649ec15503460f94bcc712/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
2. The cost issue
![Page 25: Cyberknife for lung tumors: the first Belgian experience at CHU-Liège + initiated research projects (Philippe A. Coucke) Nicolas Jansen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062500/56649ec15503460f94bcc712/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Cost-utility analysis in medically inoperable early-stage NSCLC
• Purpose:– To compute cost-utility and cost-effectiveness ratios– Help in policy decision to rationalize implementation and
reimbursement
• Method:– Markov model– Utility values and recurrence risks are collected from published data
and from prospectively collected data (QLQ-C30 and QLQ-C13)– (Multivariate sensitivity analysis and simulations of non-normal
distribution of variability of input factors to evaluate validity of the model)
![Page 26: Cyberknife for lung tumors: the first Belgian experience at CHU-Liège + initiated research projects (Philippe A. Coucke) Nicolas Jansen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062500/56649ec15503460f94bcc712/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

• More sophisticated techniques (RapidArc or Cyberknife) as compared to more conventional radiotherapy (IMRT or 3DCT) :– are likely to have a lower complication rate (at
least 10%)– will have higher tumor control rates (at least
10%) on moving tumours (but not on non moving tumours)

Secondary endpoints:
• NTCP (normal tissue complication probability) calculation based on exposure of organs at risk, using the Lyman models for pneumonitis, oesophagitis, etc.
• Explore dose escalation by irradiating at an isotoxic level will be explored in order to increase tumor control probability (TCP) based on normal tissue dose constraints used for all plans.
• Explore further hypofractionation with different techniques (the number of fractions heavily influences the treatment costs)
