Abstract:
Sixty-one consecutive patients with locally advanced inoperable non-small-cell lung cancer were treated with chemoradiation with 60 Gy and concomitant daily low-dose cisplatin (6 mg/m(2)) in a single uninterrupted course. Toxicity was mild, 80% of patients were treated as outpatients. The median survival of 70 weeks compares favorably to the literature.
