Summary

The investigators aim to explore how lung cancer patients and their family carers are affected by different types of cancer treatment. The investigators are focusing on a particular type of lung cancer called Stage III N2. N2 means the cancer has spread just outside the lung to the lymph nodes. There are two main treatments available in the UK for this type of lung cancer:

1. surgery PLUS chemo radiotherapy or chemotherapy
2. radiotherapy PLUS chemotherapy Patients live for a similar length of time with either treatment option so it is difficult for patients and health professionals to know which treatment to choose. It is important to understand the impact of the treatment on patients in their daily lives. Patients will be allocated at random to receive one of the two treatments options. Patients and carers will complete questionnaires and take part in interviews. The results of this study will help the investigators decide if a larger study should be conducted in the future.
