Cardiotoxicity following thoracic radiotherapy for lung cancer. [PDF]

Br J Cancer
Abstract Radiotherapy is the standard of care treatment for unresectable NSCLC, combined with concurrent chemotherapy and adjuvant immunotherapy. Despite technological advances in radiotherapy planning and delivery, the risk of damage to surrounding thoracic tissues remains high.

Predictors of Atrial Fibrillation After Thoracic Radiotherapy. [PDF]

JACC CardioOncol
BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation (AF) has been associated with thoracic radiotherapy, but the specific risk with irradiating different cardiac substructures remains unknown. OBJECTIVES: This study sought to examine the relationship between irradiation of cardiac substructures and the risk of clinically significant (grade ≥3) AF.

Advancements in consolidative thoracic radiotherapy following first-line immunotherapy in conjunction with chemotherapy for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer [PDF]

Frontiers in Immunology
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) presents challenges due to its high invasiveness and rapid progression, resulting in an inferior prognosis. Approximately 70% of patients have developed an extensive stage at the time of diagnosis.
