Patient SMPC records from the past seven years were reviewed, with an additional more in-depth review of the past one year, to report on course characteristics including treatment sites, where prior treatment was delivered (in-house vs an outside institution), whether institutional dose limits were met and the associate reasoning, time intervals between RT, the type of dose summation method used (rigid image registration-based vs point dose-based), as well as the evolution of this workflow.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Of the 2929 SMPCs conducted from 2017 to mid-2024, the most common treatment sites for reRT were the pelvis, brain, and thorax.

Radiation treatment planning was based on an <sup>18</sup>F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (<sup>18</sup>F-FDG PET/CT) targeting all CT-positive lymph nodes (ie, short-axis diameter > 10 mm), even if PET-negative, plus elective nodal irradiation (arm A) or targeting only PET-positive nodes (arm B). The concordance rate between different staging modalities and their impact on target volume delineation was calculated.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>The median follow-up time (95% confidence interval) was 41.1 (33.8-50.4) months. A total of 2752 lymph node stations were evaluated noninvasively, whereas 330 were examined invasively. Of 172 patients, 87 (50.6%) underwent ≥1 invasive staging modality. The number of different staging procedures per patient did not correlate with any of the primary endpoints (overall survival, progression-free survival, or freedom from local progression). The sensitivity of <sup>18</sup>F-FDG PET/CT was 89.7% (78/87) and the specificity was 67.5% (112/166) based on histology as assessed by endobronchial ultrasound. When using the results from mediastinoscopy, the sensitivity of PET was 82.6% (19/23) and the specificity was 66.7% (36/54).

Invasive staging did not, however, have an effect on outcome in this trial, with a low rate of isolated out-of-field recurrences (6 in arm A vs 3 in arm B). Radiation treatment planning can thus be based on invasive staging in addition to noninvasive PET in patients undergoing definitive chemoradiation therapy for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
