Dose-Escalation Radiotherapy in Limited-Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Phase III Randomized Trial
This is a phase III clinical trial that aims to evaluate whether increasing the dose of radiotherapy given twice a day can improve treatment outcomes in patients with localized small cell lung cancer (SCLC). All patients will receive standard chemotherapy with cisplatin and etoposide and will be randomly assigned to one of three radiotherapy regimens.
The main objective is to determine whether this intensified radiotherapy improves progression-free survival and overall survival. The study will also compare two different dose escalation strategies and assess treatment side effects and patients
