Brief Summary

study the effect of radiotherapy to the primary lesion after first line systemic therapy in metastatic non-small cell lung cancer patients.

Detailed Description

Metastatic non-small cell lung cancer patients after receiving their first line systemic therapy according to their genetic mutation will be randomized to follow up versus radiotherapy to the primary lesion.
