Practical Management of Oligometastatic Non–Small-Cell Lung Cancer

Local ablative therapies, including surgery or stereotactic radiotherapy (SABR), are becoming an integral component in the treatment of oligometastatic disease in non–small-cell lung cancer. In this review, we summarize recent randomized evidence supporting progression-free survival and overall survival benefits of local ablation in these patients, as well as upcoming phase III data which should help us better understand the ideal treatment conditions and provide more insight into the oligometastatic state. Since practical management of oligometastatic disease in non–small-cell lung cancer can be challenging, we discuss a modern framework to identify patient, tumor, and treatment characteristics that can best guide management.
