To attempt to safely escalate the dose of radiation for patients with intrahepatic cancer, we designed a protocol in which each patient received the maximum possible dose while being subjected to a 10% risk of radiation-induced liver disease (RILD, or radiation hepatitis) based on a normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) model. We had two hypotheses: H1; with this approach, we could safely deliver higher doses of radiation than we would have prescribed based on our previous protocol, and H2; the model would predict the observed complication probability (10%).
