| Abstract | BACKGROUND: The purpose of the study was to correlate clinical and dosimetric factors with the development of esophagitis and radiation pneumonitis in patients with limited-stage small-cell lung carcinoma (LS SCLC). PATIENTS AND METHODS: One hundred eighteen patients who received curative intent chemoradiotherapy for LS SCLC and had electronically archived radiation treatment plans were included. The medical charts were reviewed for clinical data. The treatment plan was reviewed for critical structure delineation and dose delivered. Treatment planning data were analyzed using Computational Environment for Radiotherapy Research (V3.3). Dosimetric parameters were correlated with the risk of toxicity using Spearman rank correlation. RESULTS: Radiotherapy dose was 40 Gy in 15 fractions (fx) (n = 80) and 45 Gy in 30 fractions twice per day (n = 38). The 6-month cumulative incidence of Grade ≥ 2 radiation pneumonitis was 6.5% and 7.9% for the 40 Gy/15 fx and 45 Gy/30 fx groups, respectively (P = .40). The 3-month cumulative incidence of Grade 3 esophagitis was 7.5% and 13.2% for the 40 Gy/15 fx and 45 Gy/30 fx groups, respectively (P = .31). Grade ≥ 3 pneumonitis was correlated with volume of lung receiving 20 Gy (V20) and mean lung dose. Grade ≥ 3 esophagitis was correlated with mean esophagus dose and minimum dose to the hottest 45% of the esophagus (D45). CONCLUSION: Mean lung dose and V20 were significant predictors of radiation pneumonitis in LS SCLC. Mean esophageal dose and D45 were significant predictors of esophagitis. These 2 treatment schedules have similar toxicity profiles. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
