BEIJING<\/span>, Sept. 23, 2022<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — On July 20, 2022<\/span>, the Shandong Proton Center (SDPT) treated the first four participants enrolled in a clinical trial, marking a key milestone on the path to expanding access to advanced cancer care \u2013 including proton therapy \u2013 in China<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Proton therapy can be used to treat many of the most common types of cancer. All radiotherapy, including proton and high energy X-rays (photon), destroys cancer cells by damaging their DNA. Healthy cells can repair themselves after exposure, depending on the level of DNA damage. Proton therapy spares more healthy tissue, as a reduced radiation dose is delivered along the path before reaching the tumor and there is no exit dose.<\/p>\n

SDPT is equipped with a Varian ProBeam\u00ae<\/sup> proton therapy system, and this clinical trial represents a critical step toward full clinical operation. As required by the China National Medical Products Administration (NMPA), a center of this nature must complete clinical trial activities for 47 cancer participants and submit a clinical study report in order to register the proton therapy system and begin formal operations and admission of patients.<\/p>\n

“Our goal is to provide the most advanced proton therapy treatment for patients not only in China<\/span>, but also throughout Northeast Asia<\/span>,” said Professor Yu Jinming<\/span>, President of Shandong Cancer Hospital & Institute. “This proton center will help advance our efforts to do this, while providing an important forum for clinical translational research.”<\/p>\n

“I want to thank our teams for their perseverance and diligence, which enabled us to deliver the proton system on schedule despite the challenges associated with the pandemic,” Dr. Xiao Zhang<\/span>, Senior Vice President & President of Oncology Systems Greater China at Varian. “We are excited to collaborate with SDPT to expand our patient impact in the region and beyond.”<\/p>\n

SDPT is affiliated with the Shandong Cancer Hospital & Institute, a leading cancer center in China<\/span>. When completed, the center will feature three treatment rooms with full 360-degree rotational gantries, as well as a fixed-beam research room. SDPT is also a member of the FlashForwardTM<\/sup> Consortium.<\/p>\n
