摘要
Local control for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains a significant problem with chemoradiation local failure rates in the chest of 30-50%. Despite attempts at dose escalation with conventional radiation therapy techniques, toxicities limit the amount of radiation that can be delivered. For stage I NSCLC, mounting evidence supports the use of hypofractionated radiation therapy (SBRT) to gain high local control rates with acceptable toxicity. For healthy patients with stage II/III NSCLC, the National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines suggest surgery is the preferred standard of care for patients with <N2 nodes or T3 tumors. In select patients who are surgical candidates or have more extensive disease, guidelines may include pre-operative chemoradiation followed by surgery, although this remains controversial and is the subject of a current national clinical trial (RTOG 0839). Dose escalation through conventional radiation therapy planning suggests that we can improve outcomes in stage III patients, but toxicity remains problematic. It follows that with improvements in imaging and delivery of radiotherapy, dose escalation with SBRT incorporation may improve local control in stage II/III NSCLC for medically inoperable patients. The rationale for dose escalation and some of the considerations for incorporation of SBRT dose escalation in stage III lung cancer are reviewed here.
