Arm Description
11 Gy will be given in 5 fractions for a total dose of 55 Gy
12 Gy will be given in 5 fractions for a total dose of 60 Gy
13 Gy will be given in 5 fractions for a total dose of 65 Gy
14 Gy will be given in 5 fractions for a total dose of 70 Gy
The maximum tolerated radiation dose determined during Phase 1 (i.e. 11, 12, 13, or 14 Gy) will be given in 5 fractions for a total dose of 55, 60, 65, or 70 Gy.
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Rate of dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) in each cohort during Phase 1
Any event per CTCAE v.4 that occurs within 30 days from the start of SABR, and is possibly, probably or definitely related to treatment, and is related to a specific list of symptoms which are outlined in the protocol.
Secondary Outcome Measures
Local control during Phase 2
Failures will be classified as local failures if failing within or immediately adjacent to the PTV, unless judged by the investigator team to convincingly be a separate lesion from the treated lesion (i.e. new lesion within a planning target volume but across a fissure).
Overall survival
Length of time start of treatment that patients are still alive

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to test whether 5 fraction stereotactic ablative body radiation (SABR) is safe and improves local control for early state squamous cell carcinoma of the lung. While three fraction SABR is effective for the treatment of early stage non small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) of all histologies, it is not safe for many patients. While four and five fraction SABR is safe, recently published data and our institutional data suggests that local control for early stage squamous cell carcinoma of the lung using the current four or five fraction SABR is suboptimal.
Detailed Description
Primary Objectives During Phase I study - Determine the safety and maximum tolerated radiation dose for five fraction SABR for squamous cell cancer of the lung.
During Phase II study - Determine 2 year local control of dose escalated five fraction SABR vs. institutional historical control standard dose SABR in squamous cell cancer of the lung.
Phase II Secondary Objectives
Determine overall survival, progression free survival and patterns of failure after SABR.
Determine tolerability of dose escalated SABR.
