Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults (18+) with histologically or cytologically confirmed high-proliferation NSCLC planned for thoracic radiotherapy.

Probably not a fit

Patients with small cell lung cancer, significant cardiac disease, pregnancy, or those not suitable for radiotherapy may not benefit from this approach.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This is a prospective, single-arm study conducted at a single center to evaluate safety and effectiveness of simultaneous integrated boost accelerated hyperfractionated radiotherapy in adults with high-proliferation NSCLC. The study will measure objective response rate, progression-free survival, and overall survival. Eligible participants are adults with confirmed high-proliferation NSCLC planned to receive thoracic radiotherapy, whether curative or palliative. Exclusion criteria include small cell histology, significant cardiac disease, pregnancy, concurrent interventional trials, or other conditions that may preclude enrollment. The lead sponsor is the Second Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University, School of Medicine, with activities taking place at the same institution in Hangzhou, China.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, participants may experience improved tumor response and survival outcomes with a potentially optimized radiotherapy schedule.

How similar studies have gone: Evidence for hyperfractionated accelerated radiotherapy in NSCLC has shown promise in some settings, but this specific high-proliferation with simultaneous integrated boost approach remains investigational.
