Abstract
Intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) refers to the delivery of a single radiation dose to a limited volume of tissue during a surgical procedure. A literature review was performed to analyze the role of IORT in gynaecological and genito-urinary cancer including endometrial, cervical, renal, bladder and prostate cancers.
Literature search was performed by Pubmed and Scopus, using the words “intraoperative radiotherapy/IORT”, “gynaecological cancer”, “uterine/endometrial cancer”, “cervical/cervix cancer”, “renal/kidney cancer”, “bladder cancer” and “prostate cancer”. Forty-seven articles were selected from the search databases, analyzed and briefly described.
Literature data show that IORT has been used to optimize local control rate in genito-urinary tumours mainly in retrospective studies. The results suggest that IORT could be advantageous in the setting of locally advanced and recurrent disease although further prospective trials are needed to confirm this findings.

<body><sec id="Sec1"><title>Background</title>
<p>Intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) refers to the delivery of a single large dose of radiation to a limited volume of tissue during a surgical procedure.</p>
<p>Radiotherapy (RT) has a major role in the management of most gynaecological and genito-urinary cancer as adjuvant or neoadjuvant treatment or as radical treatment in combination with chemotherapy or hormone therapy. IORT has the capability to increase the radiation dose with very limited or no increase of toxicity thanks to the target exposition during the surgical procedure. For this reason, IORT can be used in various settings of gynaecological and genito-urinary tumours aiming at dose intensification and consequently at increasing tumour control rate.</p>
<p>IORT can be delivered using dedicated linear accelerator producing electron beams, X-rays sources delivering low-energy radiation or high dose-rate brachytherapy units through catheters positioned in the tumour bed and loaded with iridium-192. In particular, electrons generated by linacs and brachytherapy sources can be conveniently used for IORT procedures in gynaecological and genito-urinary tumours.</p>
<p>Interestingly, the first IORT experience was indeed reported in 1905 for the treatment of a 33 year old woman affected by uterine carcinoma [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR1">1</xref>
]. Over the following decades, IORT was increasingly used for several tumours including gynaecological and genitor-urinary malignancies.</p>
<p>In 1998, the International Society of Intraoperative Radiation Therapy (ISIORT) was founded in order to promote a scientific and professional approach to IORT activity. Among their other activities, ISIORT-Europe collected and recorded information regarding IORT treatments, including those of gynaecological and genito-urinary cancers, from the affiliated centres in a database registry [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR2">2</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR3">3</xref>
].</p>
<p>This review focuses on the use of IORT in genito-urinary malignancies, reporting tumour setting and outcome for endometrial, cervical, renal, bladder and prostate cancers.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="Sec2"><title>Research criteria</title>
<p>Literature search was performed through Pubmed and Scopus databases by using the following key words: “intraoperative radiotherapy/IORT”, “gynaecological cancer”, “uterine/endometrial cancer”, “cervical/cervix cancer”, “renal/kidney cancer”, “bladder cancer” and “prostate cancer”. Eighty-four articles were found from 1981 to 2015. Reviews and case reports were excluded as well as clinical series presented as abstract at conferences proceedings. Forty-seven articles were finally selected for the review.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="Sec3"><title>Endometrial and cervical cancers</title>
<p>Patients with endometrial and cervical cancer are usually treated with surgery and RT with or without chemotherapy depending on risk factors. After primary treatment, the risk of local failure is up to 60% [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR4">4</xref>
] and the options for a new treatment are surgery, RT when a reirradiation is feasible, and chemotherapy. After such treatments, disease control has been reported in 25–50% and 18–47% in patients with recurrent endometrial and cervical cancer, respectively [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR5">5</xref>
]. In these recurrent patients, IORT after surgical resection can been considered to increase the probability of local control, especially when a repeated course of EBRT is not feasible. This treatment approach including IORT is reported in the NCCN guidelines with an evidence of category 3 [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR6">6</xref>
].</p>
<p>The use of IORT in the management of endometrial and cervical cancer was explored in 15 studies, most of them analysing retrospectively patients affected by locally advanced primary and recurrent disease. The majority of articles reported on the clinical experience from the Mayo Clinic and the University Hospital Gregorio Marañón in Madrid [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR7">7</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR21">21</xref>
] (Table <xref rid="Tab1" ref-type="table">1</xref>
). In these clinical series, IORT was delivered to the tumour bed with electrons in the majority of cases and with low kV x-rays or brachytherapy through catheters implanted during the surgical procedure and uploaded with iridium wires in postoperative setting in selected patient series.<table-wrap id="Tab1"><label>Table 1</label>

<p>In endometrial cancer patients, limited loco-regional recurrences have a relatively high control rate of about 60% at 5 years either with pelvic exenteration or local EBRT in non-previously irradiated patients [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR22">22</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR23">23</xref>
]. In this tumour setting, the use of IORT was reported in retrospective studies [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR15">15</xref>
]. Dowdy et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>
] found that radical resection of the pelvic sidewall with negative margins and IORT resulted in a relatively high overall survival rate (71%) (Table <xref rid="Tab1" ref-type="table">1</xref>
). Awtrey et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR15">15</xref>
] reported that the addition of IORT to cytoreductive surgery in 27 recurrent endometrial cancer patients resulted in a 2-year disease free survival (DFS) rate of 78% versus 67% when IORT was not used, although this difference was not statistically significant. Based on these retrospective data, the addition of IORT to surgery could be proposed in patients with isolated endometrial cancer recurrences, especially when margins might be close or microscopically positive.</p>
<p>Patients with a loco-regional recurrence of cervical cancer and candidates for salvage surgery can undergo also IORT with the intent to sterilize the possible residual disease and improve the outcome. This approach was described in three series from Mahe et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR20">20</xref>
], Barney et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR10">10</xref>
] and Martinez-Monge et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR16">16</xref>
] who reported globally the results in 188 patients with recurrent cervical cancer. Intraoperative radiation dose ranged from 6 Gy to 30 Gy, with higher doses in case of macroscopically positive margins (R2). Mahe et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR20">20</xref>
] reported a slightly higher local control, although statistically not-significant, in patients with radical resection versus those who received partial resection (27% vs. 11%), Barney et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR10">10</xref>
] did not observe any influence of margins status for local control and Martinez-Monge et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR16">16</xref>
] reported a risk of distant metastases of 38% in patients with negative margins (R0) and 100% in those with macroscopic residual disease (R2). From these studies, it emerged that the status of the margins is the most important risk factor for treatment and the association of IORT seems to improve the probability of local control.</p>
<p>As far as locally advanced primary cervical cancer is concerned, two series treated by IORT are reported in the recent literature [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR12">12</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR16">16</xref>
]. In both studies, patients underwent radical hysterectomy and 10–25 Gy IORT after neoadjuvant EBRT, concomitantly to chemotherapy, to a total dose of 50.4 Gy. In the Giorda's phase II trial, patients tolerated radio-chemotherapy quite well, but developed high incidence of toxicity (79%) after surgery and IORT [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR12">12</xref>
]. In the Martinez-Monge's retrospective series, 15% of side effects were related to IORT [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR16">16</xref>
]. The available data suggests that this aggressive strategy is not advantageous in particular for the risk of severe side effects and that concomitant radio-chemotherapy alone should be considered the best treatment strategy in this patient setting [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR6">6</xref>
].</p>
<p>In conclusion, literature data supports the use of IORT in recurrent endometrial and cervical cancer to improve local control whereas its use appears more controversial in primary locally advanced disease. The potential benefit of this approach is mainly based on retrospective mono-institutional studies and should be further verified by prospective possibly randomized trials investigating the potential advantage compared to EBRT alone.</p>

<sec id="Sec4"><title>Renal cancer</title>
<p>Historically, the standard therapy for renal cell carcinoma is radical nephrectomy. Local control and survival rates after surgery alone are satisfactory for T1-T2 N0 with rates of 90-100% and 80-90% at 5 years, respectively. The results are less favourable for locally advanced and N+ disease, where the 5-year local control rate and overall survival rates are 70-80% and 0-40%, respectively. In renal cancer, the isolated local recurrence after radical nephrectomy is uncommon (0.7-3.6%) but it is associated with a poor prognosis. An aggressive surgical approach to local advanced or recurrent disease, possibly including the removal of the renal fascia and leading to negative margins, seems to improve outcome and prolong survival [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR24">24</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR25">25</xref>
].</p>
<p>Although renal cell carcinoma has traditionally been considered relatively radiation resistant, recent data using hypofractionation for primary or metastatic lesions suggest that this resistance can be overcome by high dose per fraction, as used in the IORT scenario [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR26">26</xref>
].</p>
<p>The role of IORT in the management of renal cancer was explored in a number of retrospective studies with patients presenting with locally advanced primary or recurrent disease [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR27">27</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR33">33</xref>
] (Table <xref rid="Tab2" ref-type="table">2</xref>
). IORT doses varied from 10 to 25 Gy depending on the amount of residual tumour after maximal resection and on the dose of the combined EBRT. All cases of these series were characterized by postoperative microscopic or macroscopic residual disease in the renal fossa. A more recent study [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR27">27</xref>
] considered 98 patients with advanced or recurrent renal cell carcinoma treated with IORT at nine institutions. Preoperative or postoperative EBRT to a total dose of 40–50.5 Gy was administered to 27% or 35% of patients, respectively. The median radiation dose administered with IORT was 15 Gy (range: 9.5-20 Gy). Overall survival and disease free survival rates at 5 years were quite similar and only 24% of relapses were local whereas 76% were distant. This fact suggests the potential benefit in local control when IORT is added. Similar results in terms of local control rates were reported in previous studies from other institutions (Table <xref rid="Tab2" ref-type="table">2</xref>
). In these series, the acute and late toxicity profile seems acceptable. Many studies, however, are characterized by a limited description of late side effects.<table-wrap id="Tab2"><label>Table 2</label>

<p>From all published data, although from retrospective series, it emerges that the addition of IORT to surgery and EBRT is associated with high rates of local control with acceptable toxicity. The best candidates could be untreated patients with large tumour volume and high risk of positive margins after radical nephrectomy and patients with locally recurrent tumours. The long-term prognosis is mainly related to the risk of onset of distant relapse that is quite common, especially in patients with recurrent disease. This fact advocates the need for additional systemic effective therapy.</p>

<sec id="Sec5"><title>Bladder cancer</title>
<p>The goals of treatment for invasive bladder cancer are high long-term overall and disease-free survival rates with acceptable functional outcome, however, radical cystectomy, that is nowadays the standard, needs urinary diversion and results in erectile impotence and infertility. In order to avoid these adverse effects and preserve quality of life, bladder-preserving treatments have been proposed as a viable option in selected patients [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR34">34</xref>
]. Bladder preservation strategies for muscle invasive bladder cancer evolved over time from single modality to multimodality treatment approaches, including transurethral resection and chemo-radiation protocols. The use of an intraoperative radiation boost by brachytherapy or electrons may be advantageous for intensifying the dose and obtaining local control without compromising organ function.</p>
<p>From the literature databases, 15 studies using IORT by brachytherapy implants or electrons were selected for this review [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR35">35</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR49">49</xref>
] (Table <xref rid="Tab3" ref-type="table">3</xref>
). Brachytherapy was the most used intra-operative modality and was employed either as a single treatment or as a boost dose combined with EBRT. It may represent a curative treatment for selected high-risk superficial and solitary muscle infiltrating tumours. Clinical target volume (CTV) typically includes the macroscopic disease or the tumour bed with safety margin to full thickness of the bladder wall.<table-wrap id="Tab3"><label>Table 3</label>

<p>All the studies about brachytherapy were retrospective analyses of single or multiple co-operative centres. In 2012, a multicentre survey [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR36">36</xref>
], assessed the role of brachytherapy in 1040 patients with early stage bladder carcinoma in a muldisciplinary setting. Patients were treated by pre-operative EBRT and limited surgery with brachytherapy implant. From this analysis, it emerged that this approach can offer adequate results in terms of local control and overall survival in selected patients suitable (Table <xref rid="Tab3" ref-type="table">3</xref>
). In this regard, a careful patient selection is particularly important in relation to the non-negligible probability of acute toxicity leading to fistulas or necrosis.</p>
<p>A recent systematic review with meta-regression analysis showed better results after brachytherapy than after cystectomy in terms of overall survival, but not in terms of cause-specific survival in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer. The authors commented that this discrepancy can be explained at least in part by the differences in tumour stage between the two groups [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR50">50</xref>
].</p>
<p>The integration of an IORT boost to the whole bladder in a multidisciplinary protocol combining neoadjuvant systemic chemotherapy, preoperative RT, and planned cystectomy has proven to be feasible in the Pamplona's series [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR44">44</xref>
]. The mean sterilization rate of invasive bladder cancer, confirmed in pathologic studies by the cystectomy specimen, was 65%, and seemed to be increased by the addition of neoadjuvant chemotherapy. This finding can be of importance with respect to the development of new protocols aiming at bladder preservation. In the Lyon series [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR42">42</xref>
], an excellent bladder preservation rate of 69% was achieved with the combination of preoperative chemo-RT followed by IORT. This is the only prospective study about IORT in bladder carcinoma. It could be of interest to attempt verifying these results in further studies using an IORT approach.</p>
<p>In conclusion, after a careful patients selection, IORT could be used within a bladder sparing multidisciplinary approach because of the favourable 5-year local control rates aiming at escalating the radiation dose. IORT might have a role also in case of radical surgery for locally advanced disease in order to improve local control rates, as performed in the Pamplona’s series. Multicentric prospective studies could useful to confirm the role of IORT in this tumour setting.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="Sec6"><title>Prostate cancer</title>
<p>The rationale for dose escalation with IORT in prostate cancer is based on the demonstration of a dose–response relationship and a low α/β value in the radiobiological linear quadratic model [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR51">51</xref>
]. Likewise, the exploitation of this principle is being increasingly investigated in EBRT with hypofractionation [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR52">52</xref>

<p>Early data on IORT in prostate cancer came from the Kyoto University and the Saitama Cancer Centre in Japan, where the authors treated patients through a perineal IORT approach without prostatectomy [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR59">59</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR61">61</xref>
]. More recent experiences were reported by Italian authors using IORT in combination with radical prostatectomy and regional lymph node dissection before or after the surgical procedure [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR53">53</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR56">56</xref>
]. A relevant percentage (81%) of patients was included in prospective institutional study protocols as described in the ISIORT data-registry [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR2">2</xref>
]. From this analysis, it emerged that IORT was used as a boost dose prior to prostate removal in most cases. When a single-shot radiation strategy was adopted, a dose of 18–21 Gy was delivered, similarly to the breast cancer model. The diameter and bevel end angle of the applicators were selected based on target dimensions, considering a margin of at least 5 mm around the prostate and the necessity to reach the target underneath the pubic arch while sparing the bladder. The electron beam energy, between 9 and 12 MeV, depended on the depth of the target and the position of the rectum, which should be spared.</p>
<p>Patient selection varied widely in the various studies. The Japanese series included either early or advanced stage disease and in particular the Kyoto University included stages from A2 to C treated with curative intent and even stage D2 treated with palliative intent [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR59">59</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR61">61</xref>
]. The Italian studies accrued only non-metastatic locally advanced disease based on the identification of preoperative risk factors.</p>
<p>In terms of post-surgical early and late side effects, IORT for prostate cancer resulted an acceptable procedure. In the Japanese series, toxicity resulted in early haematuria, pollakiuria but only very few cases of late chronic cystitis and urethral stricture. Interestingly, Kato et al. reported a reduction in rectal toxicity by using a spacer to reduce the dose to the anterior rectal wall [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR57">57</xref>
].</p>
<p>In the Italian series, surgical complications, such as haematoma and lymphocele, occurred with a similar incidence to that of conventional prostatectomy [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR53">53</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR56">56</xref>
]. No major surgical complications were described and patients had no significant difference of estimated blood loss and need of transfusion. In this regard, Rocco et al. reported post-surgical complications in 42% of patients after surgery and IORT and in 30% after prostatectomy alone [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR54">54</xref>
].</p>
<p>Although the relatively short follow-up, the outcome in terms of biochemical disease free survival was quite promising resulting higher than 70% in both the Japanese and Italian series (Table <xref rid="Tab4" ref-type="table">4</xref>
). Of note, a recent update of our clinical series of 95 patients showed a 5-years biochemical disease-free survival rate of 78% in high-risk patients (oral presentation at ISIORT-ESTRO Forum, Barcelona, 24–28 April, 2015).</p>
<p>Clinical trials with long follow-up are needed to assess the real efficacy of IORT in locally advanced prostate cancer but preliminary results look quite promising. The best candidates for IORT possibly combined with EBRT, could be the patients staged T3N0 with high risk for positive margins. In the future, multicentre studies should be designed to better clarify the real role of IORT for dose escalation in local advanced prostate cancer patients.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="Sec7"><title>Conclusions</title>
<p>The delivery of a high single dose of radiation to a limited volume during the surgical time, achievable with IORT, is useful to avoid normal tissues not at risk of microscopic disease. For gynaecological and genito-urinary cancers, IORT is not a standard treatment but it may be considered a treatment option in selected patients.</p>
<p>In endometrial, cervical and renal cancers, IORT can be used mainly in recurrent disease, whereas in bladder carcinoma it may be part of an organ-sparing treatment approach aiming at patient quality of life preservation. In the case of prostate cancer, IORT can be used in locally advanced high risk disease possibly combined with EBRT to intensify the radiation dose in the attempt to improve long term local control and possibly increase biochemical disease-free and overall survival.</p>
<p>The available literature data are interesting but the present review shows that the majority of published clinical studies are mono-institutional, retrospective and often included a limited number of patients. In order to overcome these limitations, large multicentre collaborations should be established to design prospective clinical trials aiming at better defining the role of IORT in tailored multimodality therapeutic approaches for gynaecological and genito-urinary tumours. For this purpose, the ISIORT could serve as a basis for future collaboration and the ISIORT-Registry could be a platform for sharing data and promote clinical research.</p>
