Abstract

To explore the relationships between gastrointestinal radiation injuries of pancreatic cancer patients treated with TOMO and dose-volume histogram parameters prospectively. Seventy patients with pancreatic cancer who underwent TOMO were enrolled in this prospective study from February 2015 to May 2020. The clinical and dose-volume histogram parameters of the patients were collected. The optimal dose parameters for gastrointestinal radiation ulcers were confirmed based on the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) and the area below the ROC curve. Acute gastrointestinal tract toxic and side effect and injury grading correlation analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test. Gastrointestinal injury often occurs during radiotherapy for pancreatic cancer, as observed using gastroscopy. The main adverse reactions were radioactive gastrointestinal inflammation (58.5%), radioactive gastrointestinal ulcers (41.4%), active bleeding (10%), newly-developed gastric retention (8.6%), and gastric varices (5.7%). As for the stomach, Dmean and V10 were related to radiation ulcer injury. ROC curve indicated that for stomach a Dmean of 13.39 Gy (area under ROC curves = 0.74, P = .048) and a V10 of 72.21% (area = 0.74, P = .048) was the tolerated dose for the injury of stomach radiation ulcer. As for duodenum, aV20 and aV25 are related to radiation ulcer injury. ROC curve indicated that aV20 of 22.82 cm3 (area = 0.68, P = .025) and aV25 of 32.04 cm3 (area = 0.66, P < .047) was the tolerated dose for the injury of duodenum radiation ulcer. The acute gastrointestinal tract toxic and side effects have no significant correlation with injury grading under gastroscope. Dmean > 13.39 Gy and V10 > 72.21% were the key dosimetric indices for predicting radiation-induced gastric ulcer, and aV20 > 22.82 cm3 and aV25 > 32.04 cm3 were for duodenal. Gastrointestinal reactions cannot be used as an overall basis for the diagnosis of gastrointestinal injury, and gastroscopy is recommended as a review item after radiotherapy.
