Occurrence of any non-hematologic toxicity that occurs within 90 days following the start of proton therapy assessed with with NCI Common toxicity criteria (CTC Version 4.0) grades].

Acute toxicity in patients receiving flank irradiation using proton therapy for renal tumors. Acute toxicity is defined as any non-hematologic toxicity that occurs within 90 days following the start of proton therapy. NCI Common toxicity criteria (CTC Version 4.0) grades will be employed. Individual category content listings are available to investigators at http://ctep.cancer.gov, with attention to the following System Organ Classes and CTCAE Adverse Events: General Disorders and Administration Site Conditions, Hepatobiliary Disorders, Blood and Lymphatic System Disorders, Gastrointestinal Disorders, Renal and Urinary Disorders, Injury, poisoning, or procedural complications, Metabolism and nutrition disorders, and Benign, Malignant, and Unspecified Neoplasms.
