The main advantage of proton therapy is its precision. Protons deposit most of their energy directly in the tumor with little ...

The use of intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and the addition of gemcitabine to cisplatin increased the complete pathologic response (CPR) in women with locally advanced squamous cell ...

With smaller radiation beams, intensity-modulated radiation therapy “takes precision to the next level” for patients with prostate, an expert told CURE®. Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) — ...

Salvage Reirradiation for Locally Recurrent Prostate Cancer: Results From a Prospective Study With 7.2 Years of Follow-Up We investigated the SEER-Medicare linked database, identifying patients with ...

In patients with head and neck cancer, a strategy to reduce the radiation dose to dysphagia-and aspiration-related structures improved swallowing and other functional outcomes compared with standard ...

People with low- and intermediate-risk prostate cancer treated with either of two types of contemporary radiation therapy - proton beam therapy or intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) - ...

WASHINGTON, D.C.—Intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) has largely replaced 3D external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) as the preferred radiation treatment for localized prostate cancer (PCa), according ...

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 ...

The phase 3 NRG GU-005 trial did not show a DFS benefit for SBRT vs IMRT in intermediate-risk prostate cancer, but SBRT decreased rectal toxicity. Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) preserves ...

The first randomized trial to compare proton therapy with conventional radiotherapy has not found a difference in toxicity, which is the main claim for superiority of proton therapy. The trial was ...

Of the 300 patients in the PARCER trial, 93 faced grades ≥2 adverse events (3D-CRT = 59, IG-IMRT = 34). Patients in the 3D-CRT and IG-IMRT arms spent an average of 2.39 years and 1.96 years in ...
