Radiation Therapy Using 3-Dimensional Treatment Planning in Patients With Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

Completed · Phase 1

Conditions studied: Lung Cancer

In brief

RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Computer systems that allow doctors to create a 3-dimensional picture of the tumor in order to plan treatment may result in more effective radiation therapy. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of high-dose radiation therapy planned using a 3-dimensional picture of the tumor in treating patients who have stage I, stage II, or stage III non-small cell lung cancer.
