Hotspot Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy Versus Traditional Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy for the Treatment of Early-Stage Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

This clinical trial compares stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SBRT) with hot spots to standard of care SBRT for the treatment of patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. SBRT with hot spots intentionally makes sure the tumor gets a higher radiation dose during treatment. This potentially may result in better control of the tumor, but also more side effects. SBRT with or without hot spots may be more effective in treating patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer, compared to standard of care SBRT.
