Inoperable Early-Stage Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer: Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy and Rationale for Systemic Therapy

Megan E. Daly

Summary: Stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) is the standard treatment for medically inoperable, early-stage non-small-cell lung cancer. However, regional and distant failures remain a challenge, especially in larger and more biologically aggressive tumors. Use of cytotoxic chemotherapy is limited in this patient population, prompting the investigation of alternative systemic therapy options with fewer side effects, such as immune checkpoint inhibitors.

Surgical Perspective on Neoadjuvant Immunotherapy in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Jay M. Lee et al.

Summary: New adjuvant immunotherapy using immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) shows potential advantages in treating resectable NSCLC, including earlier treatment of micrometastatic disease, broad activation of immune response, and guidance for adjuvant therapy.

Predictors of Pneumonitis in Combined Thoracic Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy and Immunotherapy

Mark C. Korpics et al.

Summary: This study reviewed the clinical outcomes of thoracic SBRT combined with systemic immunotherapy and found that it achieved excellent local control with acceptable toxicity. The results support the safety of established dose-volume constraints for the lung but also highlight the importance of reporting organ-at-risk challenges near the specified limits in the protocol.

Pembrolizumab versus placebo as adjuvant therapy for completely resected stage IB-IIIA non-small-cell lung cancer (PEARLS/KEYNOTE-091): an interim analysis of a randomised, triple-blind, phase 3 trial

Mary O'Brien et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the use of Pembrolizumab as adjuvant therapy for completely resected stage IB-IIIA NSCLC. The results showed that Pembrolizumab significantly improved disease-free survival in both the overall population and the PD-L1 TPS of 50% or greater population.
