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.

* 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.

Summary
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether radiotherapy given as three large doses over a period of two weeks (hypofractionated radiotherapy) is more effective than standard radiotherapy for patients with non-small cell lung cancer that has not spread beyond the lung. Although surgery is the most effective treatment for early lung cancer, many patients are not fit enough for an operation. The alternative treatment to surgery is standard radiotherapy which is normally 'fractionated' that is, given as a number of small doses over a period of weeks. Experience has shown that many small treatments are safer than using a few large doses (hypofractionation) because there is less risk of damage to normal tissues. Recent advances in technology have however resulted in greater accuracy and with it a reduction in the amount of normal tissue affected by the radiation, so the risks of hypo-fractionation damaging normal tissue are of less concern. Initial results obtained with hypo-fractionated radiotherapy for early stage non-small cell lung cancer indicate that it may be more effective in controlling the cancer. However, it has never been compared directly with standard fractionation in a randomised trial, so this study aims to determine if hypo-fractionation is more effective, results in longer life expectancy and if it is just as safe as standard fractionation.
