Summary

This study tests a new way to give radiation therapy for lung tumors located near the center of the chest, which are hard to treat safely. The approach, called PULSAR, uses very precise, high-dose radiation given in multiple sessions over time. Researchers want to see if this method can control or shrink tumors while reducing side effects. The study will enroll 30 adults with primary or metastatic lung cancer.
