Toxicity and Survival After Intensity-Modulated Proton Therapy Versus Passive Scattering Proton Therapy for NSCLC

Olsi Gjyshi et al.

Summary: This study compared the toxicity and clinical outcomes of IMPT and PSPT in the treatment of LA-NSCLC, showing that IMPT delivers lower radiation doses to the lung, heart, and esophagus, with lower rates of grade 3 or higher toxicity. Additional clinical studies will be needed to assess potential differences in survival between the two techniques.

Impact of prior chemoradiotherapy-related variables on outcomes with durvalumab in unresectable Stage III NSCLC (PACIFIC)

Corinne Faivre-Finn et al.

Summary: The PACIFIC trial showed that durvalumab improves PFS and OS in Stage III NSCLC patients, regardless of their response to prior CRT. However, in some subgroups, such as patients who received induction chemotherapy, the impact of durvalumab on OS may be limited.
