A non-inferiority trial with protons doesn’t make sense – Dr. Nina Niu Sanford

A non-inferiority trial with protons doesn’t make sense, b/c they are much more expensive.

Need to show protons superior.

And the non-inferiority margin here is 1.53 – so PFS can be 53% worse with protons, & the study is still considered a proton win?
