2 ! Outline " Radiation techniques " FSRT and SRS results for pituitary adenomas " FSRT vs SRS (indications) " Nonfunctioning pituitary adenomas: early vs delayed treatment " Secreting adenomas

3 ! Stereotactic techniques " Radiosurgery (SRS) either Gamma Knife (GK), Cyberknife, or a l i n e a r a c c e l e r a t o r (LINAC), delivered as a single treatment; " Stereotactic fractionated radiotherapy (FSRT) delivered as a fractionated treatment.

4 " Target delineation AIRO; Genova,

5 " Treatment planning AIRO; Genova,

6 ! Treatment delivery

7 " Immobilization Technique Immobilization system Fractionation Accuracy Conventional RT mask conventional (25-30) 5-7 mm IMRT mask conventional (25-30) 3-5 mm Radiosurgery LINAC system stereotactic fixed frame single session < 1mm GammaKnife system stereotactic fixed frame single session < 1mm Proton RS stereotactic fixed frame single session < 1mm CyberKnife system stereotactic mask single session/ hypofractionation (3-5) < 1mm Proton therapy stereotactic relocatable conventional (25-30) 1-2 mm FSRT frame/mask stereotactic relocatable frame/mask conventional (25-30) 1-2 mm Minniti et al, Rad Oncol 2010

19 ! Radiation tolerance to SRS " Radiation induced optic neuropathy (RON) dose to optic apparatus incidence of RON < 10 Gy 0-3% Gy 2-5% > 12 Gy >10%

20 NF pituitary adenoma A B C D E F G H

21 Surgery followed by SRS for an ACTH-secreting pituitary adenoma Pre-surgery Post-surgery

24 " Open issues! Which nonfunctioning adenomas need treatment?! Immediate versus delayed treatment

25 IMRS for residual pituitary adenoma

26 NF pituitary adenoma Pre-surgery Intraoperative MRI 2 years post-srt

27 " Open issues! Indications for secreting pituitary adenomas: hormone normalization

28 ! Hormone control in acromegaly after RT GH ng/ml IGF-I ng/ml years years Minniti et al, Clin Endocrinol 2005

29 ! SRS for acromegaly retrospective comparison SRS 25 Gy in one fraction 16 patients ( ) vs FSRT 40 Gy in 20 fractions 50 patients ( ) SRS FSRT mean time to normalization of GH & IGF-1 (years) pretreatment GH (miu/l) mean 18.0* 29.7 range Landolt et al 1998

30 ! GH after SRS " median decrease in GH and IGF-I after GK SRS Attanasio et al 2003

31 ! Results of SRS/FSRT for secreting pituitary tumors " GH-secreting adenomas 40-55% vs 30-55% at 5 years " ACTH-secreting adenomas 40-60% vs 70-80% at 5 years " PRL-secreting adenomas 30-50% vs 30-50% at 5 years Minniti et al, Rev Endocr Metab Disord. 2009

32 ! Conclusions " Stereotactic radiation techniques are effective and may reduce the potential long-term toxicity of radiation; " Both FSRT and SRS are feasible options for patients with otherwise uncontrolled pituitary adenomas; " SRS should be employed for small- to moderatesized (< cm) adenomas 3-5 mm away from the optic chiasm.
