Age * 18 years;Patients with a diagnosis of stage IA non-cell lung cancer diagnosed in accordance with Dutch CBO guidelines. When no pathological diagnosis is available, a patient with a new or growing pulmonary lesion with radiological features consistent with malignancy AND a lesion showing uptake on a FDG-PET scan will be eligible. ;No evidence of regional or distant metastases on a standardized FDG-PET scan within 6 weeks of any protocol treatment .;Medial extension of tumours should be least 2 cm away from main and lobar bronchi, and also minimum of 1.5 cm from large peripheral blood vessels such as the aorta and main pulmonary artery. Lesions of at least 2 cm from the mediastinal pleura will be eligible if the responsible radiation oncologist judges that the specified normal tissue tolerance doses specified in the protocol will not be exceeded.;Patients should be fit to undergo both surgery and SRT. ;Patients who are judged by a multi-disciplinary team to have 2 primary lung tumors (on the basis of clinical, radiological, FDG-PET and/or cyto-pathology findings) are eligible for randomization provided that both surgery and SRT can be performed in accordance with protocol requirements.;Patient should be fit to undergo a complete surgical resection of the lesion in accordance with Dutch CBO guidelines [2004] ;Performance score of ECOG * 2 before any treatment.;Able to comply with post-treatment follow-up
Prior chemotherapy or radiotherapy for the present diagnosis of NSCLC. ;History of any active malignancy (other than NSCLC) unless treated more than 3 years with curative intent and no recurrence, with the exception of non-melanoma skin cancers or in-situ cervical cancers.;Any unstable systemic disease (including active infection, uncontrolled hypertension, unstable angina, congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction within the previous year, severe cardiac arrhythmia requiring medication, hepatic, renal or metabolic disease).;Concomitant treatment with any other experimental drug under investigation.
