About this trial

Rationale:

Proton beam therapy has recently become available for the treatment of patients with WHO grade 2 and 3 IDH mutated (IDHmt) glioma in the Netherlands. The dose distributions associated with proton therapy have substantially reduced the volume of the normal brain irradiated with low and intermediate radiotherapy doses. Whether this impacts rates of progressive disease or safety issues and how this compares with a similar population treated with photon therapy is currently unknown.

Objective:

To investigate short term outcomes after proton and photon radiotherapy for grade 2 and 3 IDHmt glioma.
