Late Changes in Renal Volume and Function after Proton Beam Therapy in Pediatric and Adult Patients: Children Show Significant Renal Atrophy but Deterioration of Renal Function Is Minimal in the Long-Term in Both Groups. Cancers (Basel) 2024; 16:1634.

Abstract
To compare late renal effects in pediatric and adult patients with malignancies after PBT involving part of the kidney. A retrospective study was conducted to assess changes in renal volume and function in 24 patients, including 12 children (1-14 years old) and 12 adults (51-80 years old). Kidney volumes were measured from CT or MRI images during follow-up. Dose-volume histograms were calculated using a treatment planning system. In children, the median volume changes for the irradiated and control kidneys were -5.58 (-94.95 to +4.79) and +14.92 (-19.45 to +53.89) mL, respectively, with a relative volume change of -28.38 (-119.45 to -3.87) mL for the irradiated kidneys. For adults, these volume changes were -22.43 (-68.7 to -3.48) and -21.56 (-57.26 to -0.16) mL, respectively, with a relative volume change of -5.83 (-28.85 to +30.92) mL. Control kidneys in children exhibited a marked increase in size, while those in adults showed slight volumetric loss. The percentage of irradiated volume receiving 10 Gy (RBE) (V10) and 20 Gy (RBE) (V20) were significantly negatively associated with the relative volume change per year, especially in children. The CKD stage based on eGFR for all patients ranged from 1 to 3 and no cases with severe renal dysfunction were found before or after PBT. Late effects on the kidneys after PBT vary among age groups. Children are more susceptible than adults to significant renal atrophy after PBT. V10 and V20 might serve as predictors of the degree of renal atrophy after PBT, especially in children. PBT has a minimal impact on deterioration of renal function in both children and adults.

An analysis of muscle growth after proton beam therapy for pediatric cancer. JOURNAL OF RADIATION RESEARCH 2024; 65:251-255.

Abstract
Retardation of growth and development is a well-known late effect after radiotherapy for pediatric patients. The goal of the study was to examine the effect of proton beam therapy (PBT) on the growth of muscles included in the irradiated area. The subjects were 17 pediatric patients (age ≤ 5 years) who received PBT with a treatment field including a muscle on only one side out of a pair of symmetrical bilateral muscles and had imaging evaluations for at least 1 year after PBT. The thicknesses of the irradiated and non-irradiated (contralateral) muscles were measured retrospectively on CT or MRI axial images collected before and after PBT. The change of thickness divided by the period (years) for each muscle was compared between the irradiated and contralateral sides. Correlations of muscle growth with irradiation dose and age at the start of treatment were also evaluated. The median observation period was 39.2 months. The measurement sites included the erector spinae (n = 9), gluteus maximus (n = 5) and rhomboids + trapezius (n = 3) muscles. The average changes in muscle thickness were 0.24 mm/year on the irradiated side and 1.19 mm/year on the contralateral side, showing significantly reduced growth on the irradiated side (P = 0.001). Younger patients had greater muscle growth. Irradiation dose was not significant, but muscle growth tended to decrease as the dose increased, and muscles irradiated at >50 Gy (RBE) showed little growth. These results show that muscle growth is affected by PBT and that long-term follow-up is needed to evaluate muscle growth retardation.
