Particle Beam Therapy Tolerance and Outcome on Patients with Autoimmune Diseases: A Single Institution Matched Case–Control Study

Particle Beam Therapy Tolerance and Outcome on Patients with Autoimmune Diseases: A Single Institution Matched Case–Control Study

It is unclear whether autoimmune diseases (ADs) may predispose patients to higher radiation-induced toxicity, and no data are available regarding particle therapy. Our objective was to determine if cancer patients with ADs have a higher incidence of complications after protons (PT) or carbon ion (CI...
