Immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy may increase the incidence of treatment-related necrosis after stereotactic radiosurgery for brain metastases: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Pyeong Hwa Kim et al.

Summary: The study compared the incidence of treatment-related necrosis in patients with brain metastases receiving combination SRS+ICI therapy versus SRS therapy alone. Results showed a significantly higher incidence of necrosis in the combination therapy group.

Current status and recent advances in resection cavity irradiation of brain metastases

Giuseppe Minniti et al.

Summary: This review discusses the use of postoperative stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) as an effective treatment option for resected brain metastases, providing superior local control compared to surgery alone and decreasing the risk of neurocognitive decline compared to whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT). Further investigation is needed to optimize dose prescription/fractionation, timing of treatment, and target delineation for improved outcomes.

Pembrolizumab for patients with leptomeningeal metastasis from solid tumors: efficacy, safety, and cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers

Jarushka Naidoo et al.

Summary: Pembrolizumab showed a 38% CNS response rate in patients with LMM, with a tolerable safety profile and deep responses in selected patients with ICI-responsive tumors. CSF t-DNA may be sensitive for LMM detection, and the immunologic subsets of CNS response require further investigation.
