Summary

This early-stage study tests a high-dose radiation technique called SBRT for people with non-small cell lung cancer located in the very center of the chest (ultra-central). The main goal is to find the highest safe dose that keeps the risk of serious side effects under 30% within two years. About 30 participants will receive different radiation doses, and researchers will track tumor control, quality of life, and survival.
