Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors Improve Survival and Local Control in Patients With Spine Metastasis After Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy

Radiotherapy, especially high-dose radiation in the form of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), may stimulate the therapeutic effect of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). Both SBRT and ICIs play an increasingly important role in the management of spine metastasis. We hypothesize that SBRT and ICI may act synergistically to improve the outcomes of patients with spine metastasis.We retrospectively reviewed patients with spine metastasis...
