Official title
In Silico Clinical Trial on Adaptive Radiotherapy in Oropharynx Cancer, Comparing Photon & Proton Therapy: A Multicentric ROCOCO Planning Study Based on a Reference Dataset.
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Given the lack of evidence for the benefit of particle therapy in relevant cases, he investigators proposed an in silico trial to investigate the dosimetric effect of contour changes for OAR as well as tumor during chemoradiation in H\&N patients. Photon and proton-therapy will be compared based on dosimetric data on 7 time points during treatment combined with plan robustness. In that way the investigators will be able to assess and compare the optimal timing for replanning for photon and proton therapy. A database of the University of Pennsylvania (Upenn) consists of 10 patients with head and neck tumors treated with chemo-radiation. Contrast-enhanced CT scans were acquired prior and during RT (T1-T7)
