Whole-Lung Low-Dose Radiation Therapy (LD-RT) for Non-Intubated Oxygen-Dependent Patients with COVID-19-Related Pneumonia Receiving Dexamethasone and/or Remdesevir
CONCLUSIONS: Adding LD-RT to standard drug treatments reduced biomarkers of inflammation and cardiac injury in COVID-19 patients and may have reduced intubation. Durable CRP decline following LD-RT predicted especially favorable recovery, freedom from intubation, reduction in prolonged hospitalization, and reduced oxygenation burden. A confirmatory randomized trial is now ongoing.CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: NCT04366791.FUNDING: None.PMID:34653525 | PMC:PMC8511870 | DOI:10.1016/j.radonc.2021.10.003
