SABR for oligometastatic renal cell carcinoma

Stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy (SABR) aims to accurately deliver a higher than conventional dose of radiotherapy to a well-defined target tumour incorporating advanced immobilisation and imaging techniques. SABR is an emerging treatment option for primary kidney cancer especially when surgery is contraindicated. Increasingly, SABR is being incorporated into the management of low-volume stage IV kidney cancers to delay the need for systemic therapy or to prolong the duration of ongoing systemic treatment. This review will evaluate the evidence and limitations of SABR for oligometastatic renal cell carcinoma.
