A Prospective Randomized Study Comparing the Target Volume for Limited-stage Small Cell Lung Cancer

Carcinoma of Lung Clinical Trial

Official title: Omitting Elective Nodal Irradiation and Irradiating Post-induction Versus Pre-induction Chemotherapy Tumor Extent for Limited-stage Small Cell Lung Cancer

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

We hypothesized that the local control for both arms were not statistically significant, when irradiation to the post-induction chemotherapy tumor volume is compared with irradiation to the pre-induction chemotherapy tumor volume.While elective nodal irradiation will be omitted for both arms.
