Summary
The purpose of this research study is to find out what effects (good or bad) may come from a
new way of doing radiation therapy for lung cancer. This study is for patients who are not
able to get surgery or chemotherapy with their radiation. The way of doing radiation therapy
in this trial is called hypofractionated radiation therapy which is a standard approach, but
this study allows the actual tumor to get an extra radiation dose while still protecting the
organs that are near the tumor.
