Core Tip |
There is a lot of research about the role of thoracic radiotherapy in limited-stage small cell lung cancer looking for the best strategy to improve local control and overall survival. The CONVERT study confirmed, in the contemporary era, the standard 45 Gy in 30 fractions during three weeks, concurrent with chemotherapy after the first cycle. High dose hiperfractionated thoracic radiotherapy in phase II trial, presented during American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) 2020, showed a better 2-year survival and a nonsignificant difference in median overall survival. |
