Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) should be the preferred choice when treating patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), as it reduces radiation exposure to the ...
SAN FRANCISCO, September 29, 2025 — A new phase III clinical trial finds that intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and proton beam therapy resulted in similar quality-of-life outcomes and low ...
For patients with advanced oropharyngeal cancer, proton therapy may beat photon radiotherapy in terms of overall survival and ...
According to preliminary data from a multi-institution Phase III trial led by researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, intensity modulated proton therapy (IMPT) achieved ...
Study represents the largest randomized Phase III trial comparing proton to traditional radiation with photons for ...
Patients were randomly assigned to standard four-field radiation therapy (RT) or IMRT radiation treatment. The primary end point was change in patient-reported acute GI toxicity from baseline to the ...
Radiation therapy (also called radiotherapy) uses high-energy beams or subatomic particles to damage the DNA inside prostate cancer cells. After enough damage, the cells cannot multiply, and they die.
Intensity-modulated proton therapy (IMPT) improves overall survival (OS) and reduces high-grade toxicity compared with intensity-modulated radiation ...
