Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to assess the short and long-term outcomes after CyberKnife stereotactic radiosurgery for early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in patients who are medically inoperable.
Detailed Description: The objectives of this clinical evaluation are to assess the outcomes of patients who undergo stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) to treat primary early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in patients (comprising of two cohorts, peripheral and central) who are not candidates for surgical resection because of high operative risks. In particular, the effect of CyberKnife SRS on clinical response rate, local control, progression-free survival, overall survival, dyspnea and QOL (for U.S. sites), and radiological findings over two years after treatment will be evaluated.
