About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Lung Cancer focused on measuring Lung cancer, radiation therapy, SBRT, Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy, Tomotherapy, other solid tumors
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Histologic confirmation of non small cell lung cancer or other solid primary tumor metastatic to lungs

Arm Type
Experimental
Arm Label
Stereotactic Body Radiation (SBRT)
Arm Description
60 Gy using 12 Gy per fraction over 5 fractions, to be given within 10 calendar days
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Response Rate (RR):
RR is evaluated according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) (version 1.0). Target lesions are assessed by computerized tomography (CT): Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions. RR is the sum of the percentage of patients who achieved a CR or PR. (RR = CR + PR)
Secondary Outcome Measures
Treatment Related Toxicity
Toxicity will be evaluated per National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), version 3.0. Frequency and severity of adverse events will be tabulated and reported.
Overall Survival (OS)
The time from treatment initiation to death by any cause
Progression Free Survival (PFS)
The time from treatment initiation to disease progression or death by any cause. Progression is evaluated according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) (version 1.0). Target lesions are assessed by computerized tomography (CT): Progressive Disease (PD), 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions.
Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR)
CBR is evaluated according to Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.0. Complete response (CR): Disappearance of all evidence of target and non-target lesions. Partial response (P): >= 30% reduction from baseline in the sum of the longest diameter of all lesions. Stable Disease (SD): Neither sufficient increase to qualify for PD nor sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR. CBR is the sum of the percentage of patients who achieve a CR, PR or SD (CBR = CR + PR + SD).

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the response of lung tumors to radiation therapy. This study will be using a type of radiation therapy called tomotherapy. Tomotherapy is a relatively new kind of therapy which is able to focus a large amount of radiation to a small area with relatively less radiation to the surrounding non-cancerous part of the organ. This study is being done to find out if this technique is able to control the cancer better or not than the standard radiation and also to study its safety.
Detailed Description
The introduction of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) has allowed safe dose escalation in treatment regimens for cancer. Several studies have shown a radiation dose-response relationship for survival and local control for tumors of the lung, including cancer that originates in the lung (such as non-small cell lung cancer) as well as cancer that metastasizes to the lung.
The purpose of this study is to determine the response rate and toxicity of SBRT treatment of patients with lung tumors. This study will use a dose of 60 gray (Gy) in 5 fractions of 12 Gy. This provides a biological equivalent dose with alpha/beta ratio of 10 (BED10) of 132 Gy with the anticipation of achieving local control without increased toxicity. Previous studies have shown that the response rate with SBRT across multiple studies is approximately 50%, with an additional 25-40% of patients having stable disease. We hypothesize that this regimen will achieve a response rate of 70% with grade 3 toxicity of less than 5%.
