Methods We analyzed 94 LANSCLC patients treated with concurrent chemotherapy and IMRT between May 2005 and September 2006. SARP was defined as greater than or equal 3 side effects and graded according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events CTCAE version . The clinical and dosimetric factors were analyzed. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to evaluate the relationship between clinical dosimetric factors and SARP Results Median follow-up was months range . Of 94 patients 11 developed SARP. Univariate analyses showed that the normal tissue complication probability NTCP mean lung dose MLD relative volumes of lung receiving more than a threshold dose of 5-60 Gy at increments of 5 Gy V5-V60 chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD and Forced Expiratory Volume in the first second FEV1 were associated with SARP p . In multivariate analysis NTCP value p and V10 p were the most significant factors associated with SARP. The incidences of SARP in the group with NTCP and NTCP were and respectively p . The incidences of SARP in the group with V10 50 and V10 50 were and respectively p . Conclusions NTCP value and V10 are the useful indicators for predicting SARP in NSCLC patients .
