Researchers have found that treating patients who have early stage non-small cell lung cancer with a type of radiotherapy called stereotactic body radiation therapy is associated with a small but increased risk of death from causes other than cancer.

Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SABR) can provide acceptable local control in patients with medically operable and inoperable early stage non-small cell lung cancer

One treatment for patients with early stage non-small cell lung cancer is a form of radiation called stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT).

The life table analysis was based on a notional cohort of 65 year old smokers diagnosed with early stage non-small cell lung cancer or limited stage small cell lung cancer.

In both early stage non-small cell lung cancer and limited stage small cell lung cancer, we found evidence of a significant association between continued smoking and recurrence of the primary tumour; in limited stage small cell lung cancer, we found also evidence of a substantial elevation in the incidence of a second primary tumour.

Life tables were used to model five year survival for early stage non-small cell lung cancer and limited stage small cell lung cancer, using death rates for continuing smokers and quitters obtained from this review.

Assuming that the findings of the review reflected a causal relation between smoking cessation and risk of all cause mortality, we further investigated the data by constructing life tables for a hypothetical group of 100 patients aged 65 years with early stage lung cancer to estimate how many deaths would be prevented by smoking cessation within the non-small cell lung cancer and small cell lung cancer populations during five years.

For patients with early - stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the only recommended treatment option is surgery.

Life table modelling on the basis of these data estimated 33 % five year survival in 65 year old patients with early stage non-small cell lung cancer who continued to smoke compared with 70 % in those who quit smoking.
