About
Dr. Annex Edappattu is a rising clinical researcher in radiation oncology, with a focused expertise in stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for complex metastatic and vascular-invasive cancers. His landmark prospective study, "Prospective Evaluation of Response to Treatment, Survival Functions, Recurrence Pattern and Toxicity Profile in Indian Patients with Oligo-Brain Metastasis Treated with Only SRS" (2023, 4 citations), provides critical, population-specific data on the efficacy and safety of SRS as a standalone treatment for patients with 1–5 brain metastases, addressing a significant gap in Indian oncological literature. Expanding his investigative scope, Dr. Edappattu’s work on "Co-relation of Portal Vein Tumour Thrombus Response With Survival Function Following Robotic Radiosurgery in Vascular Invasive Hepatocellular Carcinoma" (2024, 2 citations) pioneers the use of robotic radiosurgery to manage one of the most challenging complications of hepatocellular carcinoma—portal vein tumor thrombus—correlating radiological response directly with survival outcomes. Though early in his career, his contributions are already shaping evidence-based protocols for SRS in underserved populations, with his prospective methodology setting a benchmark for future trials. Dr. Edappattu’s research stands at the intersection of precision radiotherapy and real-world oncology, promising to improve therapeutic strategies for patients with limited treatment options.
