SABR
for Oligometastatic Cancer
Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy (SABR) is a modern RT technique that delivers high doses of radiation to small tumor targets using highly conformal techniques. SABR is non-invasive and delivered on an outpatient basis. The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of SABR, relative to standard of care (SOC) alone, on overall survival, progression-free survival, toxicity, and quality of life. An integrated economic evaluation will determine the cost per quality of life year gained using SABR (vs. SOC) and a translational component will enable identification of predictive/prognostic biomarkers of the oligometastatic state.
