About this trial
This study included patients with early-stage lung cancer cT1-3N0M0, stage IA-IIB (American Joint Committee on Cancer eighth edition staging, AJCC 8th ) who were inoperable or refused surgery. They were divided into peripheral type and central type according to the tumor location and received radical Stereotactic Body Proton Therapy (SBPT) for Early-Stage Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer. The prescribed dose for patients with peripheral lung cancer is 48-60Gray(Gy) (Relative Biological Effectiveness, RBE)/4-6 fractions, and for patients with central lung cancer, the prescribed dose is 50-70Gy(RBE)/10-15 fractions. After treatment, follow-up visits will be conducted to observe short-term and long-term efficacy, adverse reactions and patient quality of life.
