Definitive Radiotherapy for Oligometastatic and Oligoprogressive Thyroid Cancer: A Potential Strategy for Systemic Therapy Deferral
This study underscores the potential of dRT as a feasible strategy for deferring systemic therapy escalation in patients with oligometastatic and oligoprogressive metastatic thyroid cancer, demonstrating that sequential dRT courses impart excellent local control and are safe to deliver repeatedly for multiple distant sites. Further studies are warranted to validate these findings and elucidate the full benefit of dRT as part of a multidisciplinary approach for metastatic thyroid cancer.
