Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

RATIONALE: Specialized radiation therapy that delivers a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor over a shorter period of time may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the side effects of hypofractionated 3-dimensional radiation therapy and to see how well it works in treating patients with newly diagnosed stage I, stage II, or stage III non-small cell lung cancer.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

* To evaluate the acute and long-term radio-induced toxicity (any organ) of hypofractionated 3-dimensional conformal radiotherapy in patients with newly diagnosed stage I-III non-small cell lung cancer.

Secondary

* To assess the radiological tumor response rate at 3 months after completion of radiotherapy.
* To assess the actuarial freedom from thoracic progression rate.

OUTLINE: Patients are stratified according to combined lung volume at 25 Gy (≤ 30% vs \> 30%). Patients are assigned to 1 of 3 treatment groups.

* Group 1: Patients undergo hypofractionated 3-dimensional conformal radiotherapy 5 days a week for 24 fractions (total of 72 Gy).
* Group 2: Patients undergo hypofractionated 3-dimensional conformal radiotherapy 5 days a week for 22 fractions (total of 66 Gy).
* Group 3: Patients undergo hypofractionated 3-dimensional conformal radiotherapy 5 days a week for 20 fractions (total of 60 Gy).

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3 months for 2 years and then every 6 months thereafter.
