Summary

This pilot study tests whether giving a higher dose of proton therapy to the lung tumor is safe for people with stage III non-small-cell lung cancer who are also receiving chemotherapy. About 87 participants will receive the higher dose during the same number of treatment visits as standard care, plus extra follow-ups and blood tests. The main goal is to see if severe side effects stay within acceptable limits.
