Target follow-up type
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
FDG and FLT PET/CT scans at baseline, during week two and week four of therapy.
Each scan involves the injection of a radiotracer (FDG or FLT).
Each scan is approximately 30 minutes in duration.
Patients will be recruited over a five year period.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 286109 0
To simulate the administration of biologically adapted radiation therapy (BART) to patients with NSCLC using information gained from interim FLT & FDG PET/CT scans.
Timepoint [1] 286109 0
Following recruitment of all patients
Secondary outcome [1] 295166 0
To determine the role of interim FLT & FDG PET/CT scans as biomarkers of patient prognosis.
Timepoint [1] 295166 0
Overall survival (OS): time from first RT treatment until death from any cause.
Progression free survival (PFS): time from first RT until progression (local, regional & distant).
OS and PFS will be assessed clinically and with diagnostic imaging, including a follow-up FDG PET/CT scan.
