Practice Patterns of Thoracic Radiotherapy for Extensive-Stage Small-Cell Lung Cancer: Survey of US Academic Thoracic Radiation Oncologists

Differential Effect of Consolidative Thoracic Radiation Therapy in Extensive-Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer Based on Sex

“…A survey of academic thoracic radiation oncologists in 2017 showed that all respondents offered cTRT, although there was significant variation in contexts and scenarios in which cTRT was offered. 22 A survey of Canadian radiation oncologists found that 88% of respondents would offer cTRT to eligible patients. 23 In our study of predominantly community oncology centers, we showed that only a small minority of patients who survived for at least 90 days after systemic therapy received cTRT since the CREST trial publication (<21% of eligible patients in each year).…”
