Early-Stage Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy Outcomes in a Single Institution.

Introduction The gold standard treatment of stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is surgical resection. For medically inoperable patients, stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) can provide comparable local control (LC) and overall survival (OS). The objectives of this study are to determine the three-year LC and OS for SBRT compared to early-stage NSCLC patients treated with alternative radiation modalities at our institution.
