The use of blood biomarkers to predict radiation lung toxicity: a potential strategy to individualize thoracic radiation therapy.

Cancer control : journal of the Moffitt Cancer Center - 1 Apr 2008

Kong Feng-Ming, Ao Xiaoping, Wang Li, Lawrence Theodore S

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Radiation-induced lung toxicity (RILT) is an important dose-limiting toxicity during thoracic radiotherapy. Early prediction of radiation lung toxicity will allow physicians to determine a customized treatment regimen for each patient and deliver a radiation dose tailored to that individual's normal tissue sensitivity profile rather than to the average tolerance of the whole population. METHODS: This...
