Dose–effect relationship of stereotactic body radiotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer patients

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To establish the dose effect relationship between the dose parameters of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for early non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and the local tumor control rate.

Materials and methods

A comprehensive literature search was conducted using PubMed, the Web of Science and the Cochrane databases to determine the articles treated with SBRT in early-stage NSCLC. Original studies with complete prescription dose information, tumor local control rate and other important parameters were screened and reported. Probit model in XLSTAT 2016 was used for regression analysis, and P < 0.05 was set as a statistically significant level.

Results

After literature screening, 22 eligible studies were included in probit model regression analysis
