What this Trial Is About
The Oligopro-Breast trial is a Phase II study targeting women with ER+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer who have been on endocrine therapy and/or CDK4/6 inhibitors for at least 6 months, and show progressive disease at 1-3 extracranial metastases, which are treatable locally. The trial aims to investigate if treating these resistant metastases with SBRT (or other local treatments if SBRT is not possible) can extend the use of the current systemic therapy. Patients will continue their existing systemic treatment while receiving SBRT on all progressive lesions. If new oligoprogression occurs, SBRT will be performed again. A new systemic treatment line will start if there is polyprogression (more than 3 lesions at once), progression of more than 6 lesions over 12 months, intracranial progression, or lesions that cannot be treated locally. The scientific question is whether local treatment of resistant metastases can prolong the effectiveness of ongoing systemic therapy, which is particularly beneficial if the treatment is well-tolerated. The primary objective is to measure the proportion of patients surviving without changing their systemic treatment line at 6 months after SBRT. This trial is significant for patients as it explores a method to potentially extend the duration of effective and well-tolerated treatments, offering hope for better management of metastatic breast cancer.

Who Can Participate
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if you...
- ECOG performance status 0-2
- Histologically confirmed ER+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer
- History of polymetastatic disease; patients with oligometastatic disease and 1-3 oligoprogressive lesions only if ablative therapy of all metastases is not possible
- Receiving 1st or 2nd line systemic treatment with hormone therapy and/or CDK4/6 inhibitors for at least 6 months before progression
- Progressive disease at 1-3 extracranial sites
- All progressive lesions can be treated locally according to the radiation oncologist
You will not qualify if you...
- Second cancer not in complete remission
- Previous local treatment for oligoprogression during current systemic treatment line
- Current progression in a lesion previously treated with SBRT that is not suitable for surgery or radiofrequency ablation
- Progressive or new brain metastases (stable brain metastases for at least 6 months allowed)
- Unable to continue same systemic treatment line after local therapy due to toxicity or refusal
- Pregnancy
- Unable to provide informed consent
