| Core Tip |
There has been extensive effort to establish optimal timing of thoracic radiation therapy (TRT) in limited stage small cell lung cancer (LS-SCLC) management. While late TRT may have utility for management of LS-SCLC patients who may not tolerate curative-intent upfront chest irradiation due to excessive tumor burden at the outset, early TRT allows for exploiting the synergistic effect of chemoradiotherapy to eradicate as many tumor cells as possible in a shorter timeframe. Admittedly, differences in trial designs, definition of early and late TRT, patient selection criteria, administered chemotherapy regimens, treatment compliance, TRT dose and fractionation may affect treatment outcomes. |
