Clinical outcomes using carbon-ion radiotherapy and dose-volume histogram comparison between carbon-ion radiotherapy and photon therapy for T2b-4N0M0 non-small cell lung cancer—A pilot study
The safety and efficacy of carbon-ion radiotherapy for advanced non-small cell lung cancer have not been established. We evaluated the clinical outcomes and dose-volume histogram parameters of carbon-ion radiotherapy compared with photon therapy in T2b-4N0M0 non-small cell lung cancer. Twenty-three patients were treated with carbon-ion radiotherapy between May 2011 and December 2015. Seven, 14,...
متن کاملCarbon-ion radiotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer with interstitial lung disease: a retrospective analysis
BACKGROUND Lung cancer is frequently complicated by interstitial lung disease (ILD). Treatment protocols for lung cancer patients with ILD have not been established; surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy can all cause acute exacerbation of ILD. This study evaluated the toxicity and efficacy of carbon ion radiotherapy (CIRT) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and ILD. METHOD...
متن کاملCurrent Advances in Radiotherapy for Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer: from Conventional Radiotherapy to Carbon-Ion Radiotherapy
The prevalence of and mortality due to lung cancer have been steadily increasing worldwide. Based on differences in treatment strategies, lung cancer can be classified as non-smallcell lung cancer (NSCLC) and small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). NSCLC mainly consists of adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma, comprising about 80% of the total lung cancer cases. The treatment strategy for NSCLC is...
متن کاملCarbon-ion radiotherapy—basic and clinical studies
Radiotherapy using charged and/or high-LET particles has a long history, starting with proton beams. In vitro data clarify that RBE (Relative Biological Effectiveness) increases with LET up to approximately 150 keV/μm for carbon-12 and neon-20 ions. In vivo studies show that tumor control probabilities after single doses of gamma rays shift to higher doses when tumors were irradiated with 5-fra...
متن کاملA Dose Escalation Clinical Trial of Single-Fraction Carbon Ion Radiotherapy for Peripheral Stage I Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.
OBJECTIVES Our objective was to report initial results of a dose escalation trial of single-fraction carbon ion radiotherapy for peripheral stage I NSCLC. METHODS Between April 2003 and February 2012, a total of 218 patients were treated. The total dose was raised from 28 to 50 Gy (relative biological effectiveness [RBE]). There were 157 male and 61 female patients, with a median age of 75 ye...
