Summary

Background: Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is now a standard treatment option for patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (ES-NSCLC) who are unfit for surgery or refuse to undergo an operation. SBRT is a method of external beam radiotherapy that accurately delivers a high dose of irradiation in one or few treatment fractions. Intensive regimens of biologically effective dose ≥ 100 Gy are associated with good local control and overall survival, higher than in conventionally fractionated radiotherapy. There are still controversial areas in the SBRT indication where data are limited – indications for elderly and comorbid patients, indications for treatment without histological verification, treatment of central/ultracentral lesions, indications for tumors larger than 5 cm, indications for operable patients. The optimal follow-up practice of these patients also remains unclear, including the frequency of imaging, the use of PET-CT, and requirements for biopsy. CT changes after SBRT differ from those following conventional radiotherapy and it is difficult to distinguish them from tumor recurrence. Due to the high local control achieved with lung SBRT, data on the treatment of local failure are insufficient.

Purpose: The aim of the publication is to demonstrate the current information and the importance of SBRT for patients with ES-NSCLC.
