Brief Summary
The stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) literature focuses on clinical outcomes in the adult population. However, SBRT has a particularly strong rationale for application in pediatrics given that high biologically effective doses have been shown to increase control in histologies, such as sarcoma, which are common in the pediatrics population. With stereotactic radiation therapy techniques, a reduction in normal tissue dose surrounding the target lesion of interest may also be accomplished resulting in lower toxicity. Given that pediatric patients with sarcomas, presenting with limited metastases in lung and bone, are still considered to be a curable population with aggressive local therapy, SBRT could have a significant impact on outcomes in oligometastatic patients who may be otherwise unresectable.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Lesion-specific Local Control at 6 Months Post-SBRT as Assessed by Percentage of Lesions Locally Controlled
Local control was defined as the absence of local progression. Local progression was defined as: * (1) the development of a new soft tissue mass ≥1 cm at a site without a soft tissue component or with a soft tissue component \<1 cm in at baseline * (2) an increase in the largest axial dimension of the soft tissue component by \>20% in lesions with a ≥ 1 cm in soft tissue component at baseline * (3) a previous bone metastasis that was avid on fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-positron emission tomography (PET), became non-avid after SBRT, and then became avid again. The Kaplan-Meier method was used.
