10-year clinical trial report finds radiation comparable to surgery for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer
A new clinical trial report finds that stereotactic radiation therapy offers long-term survival outcomes comparable to surgery for patients with small, early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Abscopal effect refers to the shrinkage or regression of metastatic tumours that are distant from the irradiated field.
The primary end points were FISST and local control (LC) rates of lesions that received SBRT. The secondary end point was overall survival (OS) after SBRT. To calculate FISST, event was defined as the ...
