Summary

This study analyzed tumor and blood samples from 84 patients with brain cancer, meningioma, or sarcoma to find biomarkers that predict how well proton beam therapy works. The goal is to identify genetic or immune markers linked to tumor shrinkage six months after treatment. This research does not test a new treatment but aims to improve future therapy decisions.
