Studies have confirmed that systemic therapy combined with primary tumor radiotherapy can improve symptoms and prolong survival of advanced NSCLC. Our previous sturdy indicated that patients who received immunotherapy and subsequent radiotherapy suffered higher proportion of pneumonitis. Patients suffered grade 2 or more pneumonitis have worse prognosis. It is urged to optimize the radiotherapy dose and target volume for patients treated with immunotherapy and radiotherapy. According to retrospective and prospective studies, omitting primary tumor CTV radiation therapy showed no reduction in local control and survival for locally advanced NSCLC. It is postulated that omitting CTV radiation for patients responded to therapy with immunotherapy and chemotherapy will have less pneumonitis without sacrificing the local control rate. Omitting CTV may also retain better immune function which will facilitate the immunotherapy.
