    Abstract The role of radiation in locally advanced unresectable pancreatic cancer (LAPC) is controversial. Randomized trials evaluating standard doses of chemoradiation have not shown a significant benefit from the use of consolidative radiation. Results from non-randomized studies of 3-5-fraction stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) have been similar to standard chemoradiation, but with less toxicity and a shorter treatment time. Doses of SBRT have been reduced to subablative levels for the sake of tolerability. The benefit of both options is unclear. In contrast, ablative doses can be delivered using an SBRT technique in 15-28 fractions. The keys to the delivery of ablative doses are computed tomography (CT) image guidance and respiratory gating. Higher doses have resulted in encouraging long-term survival results. In this review, we present a comprehensive solution to achieving ablative doses for selected patients with pancreatic tumors by using a combination of classical, modern and novel concepts of radiotherapy: fractionation, CT image guidance, respiratory gating, intentional dose heterogeneity, and simultaneous integrated protection.

    Abstract Locally advanced gallbladder cancer poor prognosis due to a high distant metastatic rate and poor overall disease control. The impact of standard therapeutic options is unfortunately modest. Due to the rarity of the disease, evidence-based management continues to evolve. The goal of this review is to highlight the contemporary landscape of radiation therapy for gallbladder cancer. First, the rationale for radiation therapy is described. This includes the risk of locoregional recurrence following resection based on patterns-of-failure data, along with the high locoregional disease burden being a frequent cause morbidity and mortality in unresected cases. Additionally, improvements in systemic therapy over the next decade could shift contemporary patterns of failure more towards proportionally higher locoregional recurrence rates. Second, clinical data of radiation therapy for gallbladder cancer are discussed. These include consideration of postoperative chemoradiotherapy for margin- and/or node-positive cases. Patients with localized unresectable disease could benefit from ablative radiation therapy, based on promising data in non-gallbladder cancer pancreaticobiliary neoplasms. The use of advanced radiation therapy technologies such as proton beam therapy, as a means to deliver ablative radiation therapy in a potentially safer manner, is also mentioned. Lastly, the emerging concept of neoadjuvant therapy for gallbladder cancer is also described, in efforts to allow more patients to receive curative resection.

    Abstract Technological advances have enabled well tolerated and effective radiation treatment for small liver metastases. Stereotactic ablative radiation therapy (SABR) refers to ablative dose delivery (>100 Gy BED) in five fractions or fewer. For larger tumors, the safe delivery of SABR can be challenging due to a more limited volume of healthy normal liver parenchyma and the proximity of the tumor to radiosensitive organs such as the stomach, duodenum, and large intestine. In addition to stereotactic treatment delivery, controlling respiratory motion, the use of image guidance, adaptive planning and increasing the number of radiation fractions are sometimes necessary for the safe delivery of SABR in these situations. Magnetic Resonance (MR) image-guided adaptive radiation therapy (MRgART) is a new and rapidly evolving treatment paradigm. MR imaging before, during and after treatment delivery facilitates direct visualization of both the tumor target and the adjacent normal healthy organs as well as potential intrafraction motion. Real time MR imaging facilitates non-invasive tumor tracking and treatment gating. While daily adaptive re-planning permits treatment plans to be adjusted based on the anatomy of the day. MRgART therapy is a promising radiation technology advance that can overcome many of the challenges of liver SABR and may facilitate the safe tumor dose escalation of colorectal liver metastases.

    Abstract Stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) commonly is used for small liver metastases. Modern conformal radiotherapy techniques, including 3-dimensional conformal radiotherapy and intensity-modulated radiation therapy, enable the safe delivery of SABR to small liver volumes. For larger tumors, the safe delivery of SABR can be challenging due to a more limited volume of healthy normal liver parenchyma and the proximity of the tumor to radiosensitive organs, such as the stomach, duodenum, and large intestine. Controlling respiratory motion, the use of image guidance, and increasing the number of radiation fractions sometimes are necessary for the safe delivery of SABR in these situations.
