Carbon-ion radiotherapy for inoperable endometrial carcinoma

This is a pooled analysis to evaluate the toxicity and efficacy of carbon-ion radiotherapy (C-ion RT) for inoperable endometrial carcinoma. Eligible patients had previously untreated Stage I-III endometrial carcinoma without para-aortic lymph node metastasis. Total dose to the tumor was 62.4-74.4 Gy...

Zusammenfassung:This is a pooled analysis to evaluate the toxicity and efficacy of carbon-ion radiotherapy (C-ion RT) for inoperable endometrial carcinoma. Eligible patients had previously untreated Stage I-III endometrial carcinoma without para-aortic lymph node metastasis. Total dose to the tumor was 62.4-74.4 Gy [relative biological effectiveness (RBE)] in 20 fractions, and the dose to the gastrointestinal tract was limited to
