Efficacy and safety analysis: 24‐month outcomes from a prospective cohort of 106 fields treated with widefield radiation therapy for extensive skin field cancerization, with or without keratinocyte cancers

Lynda Spelman,
Andrew E. Potter,
Chris Baker
et al.

Abstract: BackgroundWidefield radiation therapy (RT) has emerged as a treatment option for extensive skin field cancerization (ESFC), with or without keratinocyte cancer (KC).ObjectivesTo assess the long‐term efficacy, safety, cosmesis and quality of life outcomes for patients with ESFC ± KC receiving widefield RT.MethodsNDROR (National Dermatology Radiation Oncology Registry) is an open‐label, prospective, nonrandomized, multicentre registry of patients receiving widefield RT at 11 Australian radiation oncology clinics… Show more

“…Dear Editor, We read with concern the article by Spelman et al, 'Efficacy and safety analysis: 24-month outcomes from a prospective cohort of 106 fields treated with widefield radiation therapy for extensive skin field cancerization, with or without keratinocyte cancers'. 1 This report does not demonstrate efficacy or safety of wide field radiation therapy (WFRT) for extensive skin field cancerization (ESFC). ESFC is a new concept, with current definitions capturing solar damage only, to actinic keratoses with or without occasional low risk skin malignancies, to patients whose burden of skin malignancy is so high that lesion directed treatment cannot keep pace.…”

“…Dear Editor, We read with interest the letter to the editor by Daly et al 1 in response to the 24-month National Dermatology Radiation Oncology Registry (NDROR; ACTRN12618000627257) publication, 2 which reiterates the important considerations relating to the use of widefield radiation therapy (RT), such as Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT) to treat extensive skin field cancerisation (SFC) in patients with current or previous invasive in-field keratinocyte cancer (KC). The NDROR is a multidisciplinary collaboration between dermatologists, radiation oncologists, nurses, and other skin cancer specialists with the aim of collecting efficacy, cosmesis, toxicity, and QoL data for skin cancer patients receiving widefield RT.…”
