First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 22, 2026 · Updated 33 times
Summary
This study tests whether giving extra radiation to the most active parts of a lung tumor can reduce the chance of cancer returning in the chest. About 78 adults with advanced non-small cell lung cancer will receive either standard chemoradiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy with a targeted radiation boost. The goal is to see if this approach lowers local failure rates over two years.
