Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Other - Hypofractionated radiotherapy (HypoRT)
Treatment: Other - Conventionally Fractionated Radiotherapy (ConRT)

Active comparator: Arm 2 - Conventionally Fractionated Radiotherapy (ConRT) - Standard of Care

Experimental: Arm 1 - Hypofractionated radiotherapy (HypoRT) - Investigational


Treatment: Other: Hypofractionated radiotherapy (HypoRT)
Highly conformal hypofractionated radiotherapy to a total dose of 54 Gy given in 3 fractions of 18 Gy each, delivered weekly on days 0, 7 and 14 with a maximum deviation of +/- 2 days from the specified time allowed.

Treatment: Other: Conventionally Fractionated Radiotherapy (ConRT)
Standard radiotherapy to a total dose of 60-66 Gy prescribed to an isodose covering the PTV. It will be delivered as 30-33 fractions over a period of six to six and a half weeks. If the use of chemotherapy is the institutional practice for this group of patients, concurrent carboplatin and paclitaxel will be given weekly (paclitaxel (45mg/m2/wk) and carboplatin (AUC=2/wk) for 6 weeks.

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
* Histologically or cytologically confirmed non-small cell lung cancer diagnosed within 6 weeks prior to randomisation. The following primary cancer types are eligible: squamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, large cell carcinoma, bronchioloalveolar cell carcinoma, large cell neuroendocrine, and non-small cell carcinoma not otherwise specified.
* Aged 18 years or older.
* Disease stage T1N0 or T2aN0 (UICC TNM stage, 7th Ed, 2009), based on FDG PET/CT performed within 4-6 weeks prior to randomisation. T stage should be based on tumour size alone (i.e. no atelectasis).
* An ECOG performance status score of 0 or 1.
* The tumour has a peripheral location, defined as at least 1 cm beyond the mediastinum and 2 cm beyond the bifurcation of the lobar bronchi.
* Tumour is assessed as inoperable either i) because of unfitness for surgery as determined by the lung multidisciplinary team including thoracic surgeons and respiratory physicians or ii) because the patient refuses surgery.
* Female patients of childbearing potential and male patients must agree to use adequate contraception throughout the treatment phase of the study.
* If female and of childbearing potential, a negative pregnancy test was performed within 7 days prior to randomisation.
* Patient is expected to survive and be available for follow up for two years.
* Patient has provided written informed consent for participation in this trial prior to any protocol-specified procedures.
* Patient undergoing chemoradiation has satisfactory haematological and biochemical parameters as described below:

* ANC = 1.5 x 109,
* Platelets = 100 x 109/L, Hb = 100g/L,
* Creatinine clearance = 40mls/min (patients with calculated creatinine clearance = 40mls/min and < 60mls/min must have this confirmed by nuclear medicine GFR scan),
* Bilirubin < 1.5 x ULN, and
* ALT or AST < 2x ULN.

Key exclusion criteria

* Tumours within 1.0 cm of the chest wall.
* Prior chemotherapy.
* Previous radiotherapy to the area to be treated.
* Women who are pregnant or lactating.
* Patient with multiple synchronous primary tumours requiring radiotherapy.
