abstract = {Retrospective evaluation of stereotactic body radiation
therapy (SBRT) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma
(HCC).We retrospectively analyzed 36 patients (45 lesions)
treated between 2011 and 2017. Twenty-seven had previous
treatments. Current treatment consisted of SBRT alone
(n = 15) or selective transarterial chemoembolization
(TACE) followed by SBRT to the same lesions (n = 21).
Eight patients received additional local treatments to
different lesions. Liver function was predominantly
moderately restricted (Child A: 29, Child B: 6, Child C:
1). Treatment planning was based on 4D-computed tomography,
dose/fractionation varied depending on location and size,
most commonly 3 fractions of 12.5 Gy $(65\%$ isodose)
and 5 fractions of 8 Gy $(80\%$ isodose).Median follow-up
was 15 months. Local recurrence was observed in 3 lesions
$(7\%),$ resulting in 1‑and 2‑year local control rates
of $93\%.$ The only significantly predicting factor was the
use of abdominal compression. New hepatic lesions occurred
in 19 patients $(52\%),$ 1‑ and 2‑year
freedom-from-hepatic-failure (FFHF) was $39\%$ and $32\%,$
respectively. Only the number of treated lesions was
predictive for FFHF. Sixteen patients have died, resulting
in 1‑ and 2‑year overall survival (OS) of $64\%$ and
$41\%,$ respectively, significantly impacted by the number
of treated lesions and Child-Pugh class. Severe acute and
late toxicity (≥grade 3) was observed in $3\%$ and $8\%,$
respectively. 6 patients $(17\%)$ received liver
transplantation (OLT) after SBRT, of whom 5 showed
pathological complete remission.SBRT (±TACE) in highly
pretreated HCC is effective and associated with excellent LC
and low toxicity. SBRT may be used as definitive or bridging
treatment prior to OLT. Patients with multifocal lesions
have significantly decreased 1‑ and 2‑year FFHF and OS.},
