Summary

This trial is testing whether a new cancer treatment is better than the current standard of care.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer who have limited progression in up to 5 body sites while on current cancer drugs. They must be able to consent, have a performance status of 0-3, and not be pregnant or breastfeeding. Lesions must be smaller than 5 cm and not involve the GI tract.
What is being tested?
The study compares standard care options versus adding stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) to existing systemic therapy for patients whose lung cancer has progressed but remains limited. Patients are randomly assigned to either continue/change their current treatment or receive SABR alongside it.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects from SABR may include skin reactions, fatigue, shortness of breath, chest pain, and inflammation around treated areas. The severity can vary based on individual health conditions and previous treatments.
