Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Given the activity of single-agent Topotecan in NSCLC, there is both scientific rationale and a medical interest in studying this agent in combination with radiation. In addition, Topotecan administered on a weekly basis offers advantages over the daily x 5 regimen, i.e., the convenience of administration and fewer visits to the clinic.
