    Résumé

    Oligometastatic prostate cancer is among the most studied oligometastatic cancers in the literature. However few prospective studies have assessed stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for prostate cancer oligometastases. Two randomised phase II trials show a progression-free survival benefit compared with observation. Prospective registry data show very good local control and low toxicity too. Inclusion in ongoing trials should be strongly encouraged to define the role of SBRT in addition to systemic therapy. Radiation therapy to the primary tumour has been studied in randomised trials and provides an overall survival benefit in patients with low metastatic burden. The benefit is inversely correlated with the number of bone lesions using conventional imaging, up to three metastases. Radiotherapy to the primary tumour is recommended by the learned societies for patients with low metastatic burden. Its role in combination with second generation anti androgen therapy needs to be clarified.
