Proton therapy planning software study
This study tests a new software system used to plan and manage proton therapy, a type of radiation treatment that targets tumors precisely. It aims to see if the software works well in routine care, which could improve treatment for future patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- Your doctor has decided that proton therapy is the right treatment for you.
- You do not need anesthesia for your proton therapy sessions.
- You are willing to sign a consent form to participate.
- Your treatment plan will involve more than 5 radiation sessions.

This study builds and tests how proton therapy planning could better protect the brain compared with standard radiation (photon therapy) for adults with certain brain tumors. It may help reduce radiation to sensitive areas like the hippocampus, with the goal of better long-term brain function.
This study tests how well new computer methods (called algorithms and machine learning) can support radiation therapy decisions. You might benefit by helping improve how radiation is planned and checked, especially for cancers treated with curative-intent therapy.
This trial tests two ways to plan radiation treatment for prostate cancer: one using a computer program (RapidPlan) and the other using human experts. The goal is to see if the computer-assisted method works as well or better.
This Phase 2 study tests a personalized, computer-guided way to plan proton beam radiation for adults with low-grade glioma. The goal is to see if the approach is feasible and can improve how treatment is planned.
This trial studies whether proton radiotherapy can treat primary brain (and sometimes spine) tumors in adults. You may join because your tumor type and situation fit specific diagnoses, including some cases needing a re-treatment plan.
This study looks at whether a type of proton beam treatment can be given safely and effectively to tumors that have already been treated with radiation before. It may help people whose tumors came back or persisted after earlier radiation, using a specific proton method called pencil beam scanning.
