Hypofractionated proton beam therapy with simultaneous integrated boost technique (SIB-PBT) can be used as a safe and effective local treatment for locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC), particularly in patients with stable disease (SD) following induction chemotherapy, according to findings from the largest cohort to date presented at PTCOG-AO 2025.

A single-institution retrospective study comparing proton therapy with conventional radiotherapy using tomotherapy or volumetric modulated arc therapy demonstrated low toxicity and significant dosimetric advantage with proton therapy in Chinese breast cancer patients following definitive surgery, according to data presented at APTCOG-AO 2025 conference held in Hong Kong.
