Summary

This observational cohort will evaluate the cardiovascular effects of chemoradiation used to treat locally advanced, non-small cell lung cancer. Patients will be enrolled prior to the start of therapy and followed during and for at least 2 years after therapy with echocardiograms, nuclear stress tests, blood sampling, and quality of life surveys.

Conditions

  • Cardiotoxicity
  • Lung Cancer Stage III
  • Lung Cancer Stage II
  • Radiation Toxicity

Interventions

OTHER

Chemoradiation

Patients will be treated with definitive concurrent chemoradiation with curative intent as determined by their medical and radiation oncologists. We will consider timing of initiation and discontinuation, type, and cumulative dose of platinum based chemotherapy. We will also consider dose, duration, and type of immunotherapy. Radiation therapy will be delivered via proton or proton therapy. Our primary radiation therapy dose-volume exposures are whole heart volumetric dose. As secondary exposures, we will comprehensively define radiation therapy dose parameters to the right ventricle, entire left ventricle, left ventricle segments, coronary arteries, and mean heart dose.
