Study Title: ADSCaN - A Randomised Phase II study of Accelerated, Dose escalated, Sequential Chemo-radiotherapy in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.
Study Description: We hypothesize that sequential chemo-radiotherapy using accelerated, dose escalated radiotherapy will intensify loco-regional treatment, improve local control and overall survival compared to conventionally fractionated sequential chemo-radiotherapy treatment. This trial will take 4 dose escalated accelerated sequential chemo-radiotherapy schedules into a randomized phase II comparison with a UK standard sequential chemo-radiotherapy using state-of-the art radiotherapy. It would be impossible to test all schedules in phase III study so we will use a combined randomized phase II screening / " pick the winner " approach to select one schedule for further testing in a randomized phase III study.
Study Design: Randomised phase II screening/ "pick-the-winner " design to select a single regimen to go forward for phase III testing. A novel design will be used that will allow individual centres to randomise to only one (but more if they have the resource) of the experimental schedules.
