Prospective clinical trial of upright image-guided proton therapy for locally recurrent head and neck and brain malignancies

This first clinical evaluation of a novel gantry-less IGAPT system confirms its feasibility, safety, and promising efficacy for recurrent HN and brain cancer, with superior dosimetry and high local control rates. Its cost-effective design may improve global access to the IGAPT.
