Up-to-date results of carbon-ion radiotherapy for prostate cancer
Carbon ion radiotherapy (C-ion RT) for prostate cancer was started in 1995 using the Heavy-Ion Medical Accelerator in Chiba (HIMAC) at the National Institute of Radiological Sciences (NIRS), Japan. After preceding phase I/II dose-escalation studies of 20 fractions over 5 weeks, a phase II study was initiated in April 2000 using the treatment techniques and the recommended dose fractionations es...
متن کاملBiochemical failure after carbon ion radiotherapy for prostate cancer.
BACKGROUND/AIM Biochemical failure after radiotherapy for prostate cancer occurs infrequently, but some cases progress to a poor outcome. The aim of this study was to examine prognosis after biochemical failure. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 728 patients were treated with carbon ion radiotherapy, and biochemical failure occurred in 90 (12.4%). Their outcomes were examined according to risk ...
متن کاملResults of carbon ion radiotherapy for head and neck cancer.
PURPOSE To evaluate the efficacy of carbon ion radiotherapy for head-and-neck cancer in a phase II clinical trial. MATERIALS AND METHODS Between April 1997 and February 2006, 236 patients with locally advanced, histologically proven, and new or recurrent cancer of the head and neck were treated with carbon ions. The treatment dose was 64.0 GyE/16 fractions/4 weeks (or 57.6 GyE/16 fractions/4 ...
متن کاملInitial Results of Hypofractionated Carbon Ion Radiotherapy for Cholangiocarcinoma.
AIM To report initial results of hypofractionated carbon ion radiotherapy (C-ion RT) for cholangiocarcinoma. PATIENTS AND METHODS Data regarding seven patients with cholangiocarcinoma treated by C-ion RT were analyzed. Prescribed doses were 52.8 Gy [relative biological effectiveness (RBE)] or 60.0 Gy (RBE) in four fractions for intrahepatic cases and 12 fractions for hilar hepatic/close to ga...
متن کاملFive-year quality of life assessment after carbon ion radiotherapy for prostate cancer
The aim of this study was to prospectively assess 5-year health-related quality of life (HRQOL) of patients treated with carbon ion radiotherapy (C-ion RT) for clinically localized prostate cancer. A total of 417 patients received carbon ion radiotherapy at a total dose of 63-66 Gray-equivalents (GyE) in 20 fractions over 5 weeks, and neoadjuvant and adjuvant androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) ...
