Ralph Weichselbaum MD Anderson Cancer Center GU005 allowed hotspots of 38.7 Gy. PACE-B allowed hotspots of 48-50 Gy. So there is a 13 Gy eqd2 difference even between prescription doses and even more when accounting for hotspots. Thus GU005 had a bit more BCR but lower tox. PACE-B had a little better BCR and more tox.
