Table 1 Fitted clinical data to linear-quadratic Poisson TCP model for the two different target types for intermediate and high-risk prostate cancer patients, for the best estimated α/β values (Fig. 5)
Target type | D50 (Gy) [95% CI] | γ [95% CI] | α/β (Gy) | LL | HL test |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Prostate gland | 66.8 [64.6, 69.0] | 3.81 [2.58, 5.20] | 1.3 [0, ∞] | 60.02 | p = 0.66 (X2 = 5.92) |
mpMRI-GTV | 68.1 [66.1, 70.0] | 4.45 [2.99, 6.12] | 2.9 [0, ∞] | 61.17 | p = 0.54 (X2 = 7.00) |
