description Abstract Background Centrally located lung tumours present a challenge because of their tendency to exhibit symptoms such as airway obstruction, atelectasis, and bleeding. Surgical resection of these tumours often requires sacrificing the lungs, making definitive radiotherapy the preferred alternative to avoid pneumonectomy. However, the proximity of these tumours to mediastinal organs at risk increases the potential for severe adverse events. To mitigate this risk, we propose a dual-method approach: deep inspiration breath-hold (DIBH) radiotherapy combined with adaptive radiotherapy. The aim of this single-centre, single-arm phase II study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of DIBH daily online adaptive radiotherapy. Methods Patients diagnosed with centrally located lung tumours according to the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer recommendations, are enrolled and subjected to DIBH daily online adaptive radiotherapy. The primary endpoint is the one-year cumulative incidence of grade 3 or more severe adverse events, as classified by the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE v5.0). Discussion Delivering definitive radiotherapy for centrally located lung tumours presents a dilemma between ensuring optimal dose coverage for the planning target volume and the associated increased risk of adverse events. DIBH provides measurable dosimetric benefits by increasing the normal lung volume and distancing the tumour from critical mediastinal organs at risk, leading to reduced toxicity. DIBH adaptive radiotherapy has been proposed as an adjunct treatment option for abdominal and pelvic cancers. If the application of DIBH adaptive radiotherapy to centrally located lung tumours proves successful, this approach could shape future phase III trials and offer novel perspectives in lung tumour radiotherapy.
