寡转移性疾病在血液系统恶性肿瘤中是否是适用且有价值的概念？放射治疗标准、现代技术与创新的叙述性综述

Haematologic malignancies are particular in that they can generally be cured, even when distant metastases are present at diagnosis, unlike solid malignancies. Systemic treatments, including chemotherapy, targeted therapies, and immunotherapy, are the standard of care with excellent results. The considerable progress made in the management of these diseases in the last 20years has redefined the role of radiation therapy as minor in many clinical situations. We propose a literature review of data, showing that radiation therapy still has a role in curative, salvage, and palliative therapy situations. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A document and literature search was carried out in the following databases: Medline and ClinicalTrial.gov, for the terms "radiotherapy", "haematologic malignancies", "Hodgkin lymphoma", "non-Hodgkin lymphoma", "CAR T cells", "multiple myeloma", "solitary plasmocytoma", "intensity-modulated radiotherapy", "extracranial stereotactic body radiation therapy" and "proton therapy references".

Haemopathological malignancies include a wide range of diseases and radiation therapy indications have been assessed over the past 20years. Currently, radiation therapy is indicated for localized disease (solitary plasmocytoma), as an adjuvant (Hodgkin lymphoma), in palliative settings, or after systemic treatment in relapsed patients (chimeric antigen receptor [CAR] T-cells) with a low recurrence burden, which can therefore be considered "oligorecurrence". Radiation therapy, through total body irradiation, has important indications, thanks to its immunomodulatory and/or myeloablative effects. Moreover, recent technological developments have made possible significant improvement in safety, contributing to radiation therapy being positioned in the treatment strategy of several indications.

Given the effectiveness of systemic treatments in hematologic malignancies, the oligometastasis stage is of little importance. A curative intent after local radiation therapy, even advanced stage, is possible, both with residual disease for advanced Hodgkin lymphoma, aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma, or solitary plasmocytoma, and even without evidence of disease after chemotherapy for Hodgkin or non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The role of new treatments, such as CAR T cells, allows us to consider radiation therapy after systemic treatment of relapsed diseases with low volume recurrence, which can be considered oligorecurrence.
