(OA05) Stereotactic Body Radiation and Adjuvant Chemotherapy Versus Surgery and Adjuvant Chemotherapy For T1-2N0 Small Cell Lung Cancer

Recent multi-institutional observational studies suggest that stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) and chemotherapy for inoperable T1-2N0M0 small cell lung cancer (SCLC) appears safe and effective. There is no information available about how these patients compare to operable patients who receive surgery followed by chemotherapy, as recommended by national guidelines.
