This study compared the efficacy and safety of pencil beam scanning proton therapy (PBSPT) versus intensity-modulated (photon) radiotherapy (IMRT) in patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We retrospectively reviewed 219 patients with stage III NSCLC who received definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy between November 2016 and December 2018. Twenty-five patients (11.4%) underwent PBSPT (23 with single-field optimization) and 194 patients (88.6%) underwent IMRT. Rates of locoregional control (LRC), overall survival, and acute/late toxicities were compared between the groups using propensity score-adjusted analyses. Patients treated with PBSPT were older (median: 67 vs. 62 years) and had worse pulmonary function at baseline (both FEV1 and DLCO) compared to those treated with IMRT. With comparable target coverage, PBSPT exhibited superior sparing of the lung, heart, and spinal cord to radiation exposure compared to IMRT. At a median follow-up of 21.7 (interquartile range: 16.8–26.8) months, the 2-year LRC rates were 72.1% and 84.1% in the IMRT and PBSPT groups, respectively (p = 0.287). The rates of grade ≥ 3 esophagitis were 8.2% and 20.0% after IMRT and PBSPT (p = 0.073), respectively, while corresponding rates of grade ≥ 2 radiation pneumonitis were 28.9% and 16.0%, respectively (p = 0.263). PBSPT appears to be an effective and safe treatment technique even for patients with poor lung function, and it does not jeopardize LRC.
