摘要

Patients with locally advanced (LA) non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) and a large primary tumor are at risk of being considered to have incurable disease or excluded from radical-intent treatment [1,2]. We generally consider radical chemoradiotherapy in eligible patients so long as the risk of toxicity appears acceptable — absolute tumor size is not used to allocate treatment. We decided to test the hypothesis that even large tumors can respond well to chemoradiotherapy. We studied superior sulcus tumors (SST), considered a subgroup of NSCLC, because patients with operable SST receive induction chemoradiotherapy followed by resection. This allowed us to use pathological complete response (pCR), which has been correlated with survival, as an objective, clinically meaningful end-point of treatment response [3-6]. At the same time we also tested the hypothesis that large tumors could be sterilized with modest doses of radiotherapy (45-50 Gy).
