Abstract

Radiation therapy plays an important role in the treatment of locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC). However, determining the optimal radiotherapy irradiation field for LA-NSCLC can be challenging. Herein, we analyzed the accumulated experience of radiotherapy for LA-NSCLC at Showa University Fujigaoka Hospital, to identify important considerations while creating radiotherapy treatment plans for LA-NSCLC. A total of 50 patients with LA-NSCLC who were treated with radiotherapy in our hospital were included in the study. The median overall survival and median progression-free survival times were 38.5 and 14.2 months, respectively. The two-year overall survival and two-year progression-free survival rates were 64.2% and 32.1%, respectively. The treatment outcomes were similar to those reported by other researchers. Additionally, elective nodal failure occurred in two cases (4%), both of which were upper lobe origin and treated with involved field radiation therapy. Elective nodal irradiation might be considered in cases of upper lobe origin unless the irradiated volume of the lung is elevated.
