150 Outcomes After Curative-Intent Radiotherapy for Lung Cancer with Driver Mutations: A Retrospective Multicentre Case-Control Study
Molecular analysis is increasingly available for non-metastatic NSCLC across the UK. Whilst patients with NSCLC and driver mutations have worse outcomes following surgery, chemotherapy and immunotherapy compared to patients with ‘wildtype’ tumours, there is a dearth of outcome data in the setting of curative-intent radiotherapy. A retrospective, multicentre, case-control study was undertaken by the British Thoracic Oncology Group trainee network in order to determine if common driver mutations impact outcomes after radi otherapy.
