Sparing Bone Marrow in Patients with Stage IIB-IV Lung Cancer, VMAT Trial

This phase II trial tests whether designing radiation to avoid bone marrow in the spine (vertebral bone marrow) leads to less reduction of white blood cell counts (lymphopenia) in patients with lung cancer. This sparing technique could lead to better disease control and outcome.
