Key clinical point: Stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy (SABR) leads to long-term systemic disease control and survival in patients with oligometastatic breast cancer.

Major finding: The median follow-up was 50 months. Of the patients who progressed, 82% had new metastases and 18% experienced local failure. Median overall survival (OS) was 86 months, and progression-free survival (PFS) was 33 months. The receipt of SABR within 5 years of diagnosis (P = .004) and presence of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC; P = .013) were associated with worse OS. Advanced T stage (P = .062) and TNBC (P = .013) were associated with worse PFS.

Study details: A retrospective study of patients with metastatic breast cancer who received SABR between 2008 and 2018.

Disclosures: This study was supported by the National Institutes of Health/National Cancer Institute. The authors declared no conflicts of interest.
