Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity stereotactic body radiation (SBRT) as consolidation following standard chemoradiation for patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer.
Detailed Description:
This protocol will investigate the potential role of SBRT for patients with stage 3 NSCLC. Eligible patients will first have received standard 50.4 Gy chemoradiation. Patients entering the study will have the opportunity to receive SBRT as a noninvasive option as compared to surgical resection. For patients who are not surgical candidates, SBRT after 50.4 Gy chemoradiation represents a technique of radiation consolidation that may be more effective and less toxic than standard conventional fractionated radiation
