Is there a role for Local Tx of the Primary Tumor for Patients with Metastatic Cancer?

🚫Many studies demonstrate no benefit.
📌We performed a MetaAnalysis to evaluate the average effect of Local Tx across various tumors.

A thread🧵#AMSM #PRIMETX
redjournal.org/article/S0360-…

1/25
Critics of Local Tx to the Primary Tumor

📌 Many providers think local control of the primary tumor in the setting of M1 dz is akin to “closing the barn door after the horse has bolted”
📌 Ian Tannock wrote a fantastic article on this back in 2000.

pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11759650/

Supporters of Local Tx

📌Some support aggressive ablation of all sites due to the enhanced ability to detect occult disease with improved imaging technologies and 📉 toxicities with complete ablation.
