Public criteria

Who may be able to participate

The sponsor separates these requirements into two groups. You do not need to interpret them alone—use them to guide a conversation with the study team.

Requirements people may need to meetInclusion criteria
  • Histologically or cytologically documented malignancy of the thorax including but not limited to non-small cell lung cancer or small cell lung cancer planned for definitive therapy with fractionated radiation (60-66 Gy) and concurrent systemic therapy
  • ECOG performance status of 0-2
  • PET/CT or CT Imaging of Thorax
  • Age ≥ 18 years old
  • Ability to understand and the willingness to personally sign the written IRB approved informed consent document
  • Estimated life expectancy of 12 weeks or longer
Reasons someone may not be able to joinExclusion criteria
  • Contraindication to receiving radiotherapy or systemic therapy as determined by treating radiation and medical oncologist
  • Age \< 18 years old
  • Diagnosis of interstitial pulmonary fibrosis
  • Previous radiation therapy to the thorax that would result in overlapping high dose radiation fields

Important: This is the sponsor’s public criteria, not a determination of eligibility. The study team must review your individual situation.
