Trial Information

SBRT Radiotherapy for Non-operated Non-small-cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC), T1-T2, N0, M0


The main objective of this study is to do a health economic evaluation of innovating
techniques in radiotherapy.

SBRT is the very precise delivery of high-powered radiation to small target volumes, using
multiple low-intensity beams. Extremely precise patient positioning and target location is
essential for accurate treatment delivery.

Several studies have shown a benefit of SBRT in terms of local control and progression-free
survival, in particular for the treatment of cerebral metastases of limited number and size.

The development of this technique is recent. The number of treatment sessions is low: 1 to
4.

But the patient is exposed to a major risk of toxicity in several organs: the bronchi, the
lungs, large vessels, the oesophagus and the spinal-cord.

Pulmonary SBRT imposes strict rules and the use of specific equipment.

Extra-cranial SBRT can be realized using either:

- Conventional linear-accelerator equipped SBRT,

- Cyberknife SBRT.

3 groups of treatment will be evaluated in this study:

- SBRT by cyberknife,

- SBRT by linear accelerator,

- Conformational radiotherapy (free breathing or breath holding).
