Radical radiation therapy for lung cancer.

Author: SeagrenS L

Clinical TrialA clinical trial is a planned study conducted on humans to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pharmaceuticals, medical devices, and treatment methods. It aims to explore the possibilities of new treatments and improve the health of patients.
Journal ArticleAn article published in an academic or professional journal that reports original research or scholarly analysis.
Randomized Controlled TrialA clinical trial that randomly assigns participants to treatment and control groups to evaluate the effects of an intervention.
ReviewAn article that critically examines existing research on a particular topic and summarizes the current state of knowledge in the field.

Overview

Despite early trials suggesting a wait-and-see approach for non-resectable lung cancer, advancements in staging, treatment planning, and understanding of prognostic factors have led to a 20-30% 2-year survival rate with radical radiotherapy.

Original Abstract of the Article :
Radical radiotherapy of lung cancer has been studied for over 30 years. Results of early trials are often cited to justify a wait-and-see approach for all nonresectable patients. Because of more accurate staging, better radiotherapy treatment planning and delivery, and recognition of nonanatomic pro...See full text at original site
