The model incorporated patient-specific probabilities of complications, including cardiovascular disease, secondary malignant tumors, and radiation pneumonitis, derived from normal tissue complication probability models and representative national data. Deterministic and probabilistic sensitivity analyses were conducted. Participants were a simulated cohort of Belgian women with breast cancer, reflecting national incidence and survival data, stratified by baseline cardiovascular risk, smoking status, and age.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"ab-zoi251463-7\">\n                    <jats:title>Exposures<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Comparison of proton therapy vs photon therapy delivered via DIBH or FB.

Proton therapy was not cost-effective in any scenario under base case assumptions. The greatest potential benefit was observed in patients with moderate to high baseline cardiovascular risk receiving left-sided irradiation with regional nodal irradiation, with an ICER of \u20ac292\u202f438 (95% CI, \u20ac290\u202f598-294\u202f299) per QALY for proton therapy compared with photon free breathing. Under the most optimistic cost scenario (full treatment capacity and a 15% reduction in proton therapy costs), proton therapy was cost-effective compared with photon free breathing in approximately 36\u202f000 of 1\u202f000\u202f000 simulated patients (3.6%), but it was not cost-effective compared with photon deep inspiration breath-hold in any subgroup, with ICERs exceeding \u20ac700\u202f000
