About This Study
The purpose of this study is to find out if we can delay your cancer getting worse and help you live longer by giving high-dose radiation therapy directly to your lung tumor. This treatment will be done before the usual treatment for locally-advanced non-small cell lung cancer. We want to find out if this approach is better or worse than the usual treatment.
Need volunteers diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to lymph nodes in the chest and not able to be treated with surgery. Taking part in this study will last for 12 months. Then you will be asked to visit the clinic every 3 months for one year, then every 6 months for two years and then yearly for life. Study team will discuss study details with you.
