Trial Outcomes & Findings for Using FDG-PET During Radiation Therapy in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NCT NCT01190527)

NCT ID: NCT01190527

Last Updated: 2017-06-02

Results Overview

Use FGD-PET-CT based adaptive radiation to deliver a higher total dose to the active tumor to determine if it will improve the local-regional tumor control and progression-free survival in patients, without increasing the normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) of the lung.
