Positive results from cancer treatment trials

THE 35 cancer patients undergoing clinical trials at the new Shanghai Proton and Heavy Ion Center, which uses an advanced form of radiotherapy treatment, are showing good results.

The center is expected to officially open next year, it said yesterday. All 35 trial cases were completed between June and September, and follow-up visits and observation ended last week. The center uses beams of protons and heavy ions to irradiate diseased tissue more precisely than traditional radiotherapy.
