- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Incidence of proton-induced hepatic insufficiency within 6 months after real-time tumor-tracking proton beam therapy. Development of hepatic insufficiency presented with anicteric ascites and/or asterixis within 6 months after completion of proton beam therapy in the absence of disease progression was defined as proton-induced hepatic insufficiency.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method 2-year overall survival, local control, progression free survival, recurrence pattern, incidence of adverse effect, incidence of dropout of internal fiducial markers during treatment period
