Incorporating NTCP into Randomized Trials of Proton Versus Photon Therapy

PURPOSE: We propose and simulate a model-based methodology to incorporate heterogeneous treatment benefit of proton therapy (PrT) versus photon therapy into randomized trial designs. We use radiation-induced pneumonitis (RP) as an exemplar. The aim is to obtain an unbiased estimate of how predicted...
