Inclusion Criteria

Patients aged 18 years or older with histologically- or cytologically-confirmed non-squamous cell carcinoma of the lung

Inoperable stages II–IIIB NSCLC, who have received no previous thoracic radiotherapy AND no chemotherapy or anti-cancer agents for at least 21 days WHO performance score of 0-2; acceptable pulmonary function as defined by a Fev1 of =30% and a DLCO of =40% of predicted; no use of anticoagulants.

Only patients who are not at high risk for radiation pneumonitis (V20 > 35%) are eligible.

The maximum spinal cord dose will be limited to 32 Gy, 36 Gy and 40 Gy in successive cohorts. When total dose delivered is limited by either spinal or lung doses, all treated patients will still be eligible for toxicity evaluation. Additional patients will also be recruited in order to ensure that the minimum required number of patients will be treated to 66 Gy.
