Brief Summary: RATIONALE Radiation therapy may relieve symptoms in patients with non-small cell lung cancer It is not yet known which regimen of radiation therapy is most effective in relieving symptoms in patients with non-small cell lung cancer

PURPOSE Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of different regimens of radiation therapy to relieve symptoms in patients who have non-small cell lung cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES I Compare the efficacy of two schedules of radiotherapy in the palliation of symptoms in patients with non-small cell lung cancer II Compare the toxicity of these two regimens in these patients III Compare the quality of life and survival of patients treated with these two regimens

OUTLINE This is a randomized multicenter study Patients are stratified according to center weight loss in the previous 6 months no greater than 10 vs greater than 10 and performance status ECOG 0 or 1 vs 2 or 3 Patients are randomized to undergo radiotherapy as 5 fractions over 5 days or 1 fraction on 1 day Quality of life is assessed before treatment weekly for 5 weeks and monthly thereafter Patients are followed weekly for 5 weeks then every 2 months for 1 year

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 210 patients will be accrued for this study
