Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) for Stage I Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC): Analysis Based on the New TNM Classification and Difference Due to HistologyStereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) for Stage I Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC): Analysis Based on the New TNM Classi...
To report our institutional experience using image-guided stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for early stage lung cancer, including an analysis into factors associated with nodal and distant failures (NF, DF). Forty-eight patients with early-stage primary lung cancer were treated with image-...
Phase I Study of Accelerated Conformal Radiotherapy for Stage I Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer in Patients With Pulmonary Dysfunction: CALGB 39904 Purpose The optimal treatment for medically inoperable stage I non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has not been defined. Patients and Methods Cancer and Leu...

A phase I study was conducted to investigate the safety and efficacy of twice-weekly paclitaxel (Taxol; Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, Princeton, NJ) and concurrent thoracic irradiation in patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer. Radiation therapy beginning on day 1 was delivered in 1.8...
SBRT is the current standard of care for inoperable early stage Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)2,3,4,5,6. Especially patients with pulmonary or cardiological comorbidities precluding surgery are clearly benefitting from the non-invasive nature of the SBRT procedure. Previous studies revealed ...
Importance Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) has become a standard treatment for patients with medically inoperable early-stage lung cancer. However, its effectiveness in patients medically suitable for surgery is unclear. Objective To evaluate
The Impact of Tumor Size on Outcomes After Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Medically Inoperable Early-Stage Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Purpose Stereotactic body radiation therapy for medically inoperable early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) offers excellent control rates. Most pu......
The new analysis looked at 47,000 patients who received palliative radiation for stage 4 lung cancer in the U.S. between 2004 and 2012 and found that about one in five had received chemotherapy at the same time. Nearly a third of patients received more than 25 radiation treatments—10 above...
