Patterns of failure following loco-regional radiotherapy in the treatment of limited stage small cell lung cancer
Abstract
PURPOSE: The probability of treatment resistant cells developing in a tumor, such as small cell lung cancer (SCLC) which has a rapid cell cycle time, is a function of the number of tumor cells present and of time. Theoretically, the development of resistance to chemotherapy and radiotherapy should be minimized by using all treatment modalities early in the treatment program.
METHODS AND MATERIALS: The importance of the timing of loco-regional …
