- W4242362430 abstract "Purpose/Objective(s)This study prospectively investigated Protoporphyrin (PpIX) fluorescence as a means of determining the clinical target volume (CTV) necessary to encompass subclinical disease for non-melanotic skin cancers.Materials/MethodsPpIX photo-delineation was performed on 30 patients by applying δ-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) or Metvix™ (MAL) cream to the lesions to be treated, in order to delineate a CTV prior to treatment with radiation therapy. This CTV was then compared to conventional margins for subclinical disease (10 mm for poorly demarcated tumors).ResultsOf the 30 patients sampled, 26 (87%) of the lesions were BCCs and 4 (13%) were SCCs. 16/30 (53%) patients had primary nasal tumors. Seven (23%) patients had well-demarcated lesions and 23 (77%) patients had poorly demarcated tumors. The PpIX photo-delineation demonstrated a significant larger CTV - of 15 mm versus the conventional 10 mm expansion - for 16/23 (70%) cases of poorly demarcated lesions (p = 0.008), as well as for all BCCs (mean CTV with PpIX photo-delineation = 13 mm, p = 0.03) and for non-nasal lesions (mean CTV = 14 mm, p = 0.03). Nasal lesions had multifocal PpIX uptake in 15 of 16 cases (94%): the average expansion from PpIX fluorescence was 14 mm (variance = 122.9, p = 0.13), though this was not statistically significant. The local control rate after radiation therapy was 95.6% at 17.7 months.ConclusionsPpIX photo-delineation suggests that conventional 10 mm margins may be inadequately covering areas of subclinical disease in poorly demarcated skin tumors. PpIX photo-delineation also showed nasal lesions to be multifocal. Longer follow-up may be necessary to determine if this increase in CTV is clinically significant.
