1 ProtonTherapy: A ballistic that will benefit patients? Pr. Xavier Geets MIRO Lab, IREC UCL Radiotherapy Dept. CUSL, Belgium
2 Proton Therapy, a swissknife The balistic advantage of protons P PHOTON THERAPY PROTON THERAPY
3 Proton vs photon: depthdose curves Depth dose curves Relative doses (%) MeV photons Photons Protons Additional Dose outside the target delivered with Photons Proton Spread Out Bragg Peak Tumor Depth in water (mm)
4 PencilBeamScanning (PBS) PT High conformal dose delivery technique
5 Proton, RBE = 1.1? AlterationRBE in end of peak
6 Proton radiobiology LET increases as the beam progresses in depth (SOBP) RBE increasesby 6-10% fromthe middleto the endof SOBP
7 Proton: improvingradiotherapy Effective eradication of all cancer cells Avoiding injury to normal tissues Differential effect Relatively more marked effect(rbe) Ballistic selectivity More conformaldose distribution Who will benefit (the most...)?
8 Proton Therapy, for whom? CHILDREN PHOTON PROTON
9 Proton Therapy, for whom? CHILDREN PEDIATRIC INDICATIONS (RIZIV) Chordoma(base of skull, spinal) Base of skull chondrosarcoma Soft Tissue Sarcoma, (para)spinal Pelvic sarcoma Rhabdomyosarcoma Ewing s sarcoma Retinoblastoma Low grade glioma Ependymoma Craniopharyngioma Epiphyseal parenchymatous tumors Estesioneuroblastoma Medulloblastoma/PNET SNC Germinoma Non-resectable osteosarcoma ETHIC and SCIENTIFIC evidences Insufficient CLINICAL evidence
10 Proton Therapy, for whow? (RADIORESISTANT) TUMOURS IN RADIOSENSITIVE ENVIRONMENT BS Chondrosarcoma Paraspinal Chordoma Vertebral Osteosarcoma RetroP Sarcoma Ribs Sarcoma
11 Proton Therapy, for whow? (RADIORESISTANT TUMOURS) IN RADIOSENSITIVE ENVIRONMENT ADULT INDICATIONS (RIZIV) Intraocular melanoma ChordomaBase of skull, sacral or paraspinal Chondrosarcoma Meningioma Intracranial AVM Medulloblastoma Carbon ions, a better alternative to proton for radioresistant tumours?
12 Leucistism White Giraf(Tanzanie) What about frequent tumours?
13 Leftbreastcancer in youngwomen Excess of myocardial Infarction (Harris et al, JCO 2006) PHOTONS PROTONS
14 Non-small-celllungcancer Lung/heart toxicities hamper efficient dose escalation D mean heart=33 Gy D mean heart=13 Gy Proton Therapy X-rays/IMRT Extra-doses
15 ExtendingcurrentPT indications 1 CLINICAL EVIDENCES? Tumour control Acute/late toxicities Qualityof life 2 TECHNICAL FEASIBILITY? Range distortion in changing anatomy Breathing motion: interplay effect
16 Meaningfulpatient selectionfor PT MODEL-BASED APPROACH 1 In-silico planning comparative studies 2 NTCP-derived clinical benefit Late adverse effect with long latency 3 Validation with prospective cohorts Langendijk et al, R&O 2013
