- W1974741678 abstract "Purpose/Objective(s)The purpose of this in vivo study was to investigate the tumor control and normal tissue toxicity of pulsed low dose rate radiation therapy (PLRT) for recurrent lung cancer.Materials/MethodsThis study consisted of two experiments: (1) total body irradiation (TBI) to investigate the normal tissue toxicity of PLRT and (2) PLRT treatment of A549 tumor-bearing mice to investigate the tumor local control. For the TBI experiment, 20 mice were divided into two groups randomly. One group was irradiated continuously at a dose rate of 300 MU/min. The other group was irradiated with 40×0.2Gy pulses with a 3min internal. The total body radiation dose was 8Gy in one treatment. The weight of each mouse was measured daily. For the A549 tumor treatment experiment, 1×106 A549 cells were injected subcutaneously into the left and right abdominal region. The tumor-bearing mice were randomly assigned to three groups: (1) control group (n = 10), (2) conventional RT group (n = 10), and (3) PLRT group (n = 10). When the tumor volume reached approximately 80 mm3, treatment was initiated. All treatments were delivered in two fractions of 2Gy each in two consecutive days. Following the treatment, mice were MR-scanned weekly and the tumor volumes were measured using MRI (resolution: 0.2mm) for tumor growth monitoring.ResultsIn the TBI experiment, there was a significant difference in the weight and survival time between the mice treated with conventional RT and PLRT; the average weight of the conventional RT group decreased continuously from 26.55±0.93g to 20.94±1.68g while the PLRT group showed no change in weight, and the survival time for the conventional RT group was eight days and for the PLRT group it was twelve days. For the tumor control experiment using the A549 xenograft model, the results showed that both conventional RT and PLRT could significantly inhibited the growth of A549 tumors compared with the untreated control group (>35% difference in the mean tumor volume). The PLRT results were slightly better than the conventional RT treatment in terms of the mean tumor volume although there was no significant difference (8% difference in the mean tumor volume) between the two groups.ConclusionsThis study showed that pulsed low dose rate radiation therapy (PLRT) could control A549 tumors as effectively as conventional RT with less normal tissue toxicity. Thus, PLRT would be a good modality for treating recurrent lung cancers.
