About this study

By installing tools that extract clinical data from electronic health records and image data from the Picture Archiving and Communication System, decision support systems are built and validated that can predict survival and treatment toxicities of lung cancer patients treated with radiotherapy.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patients notes as suffering from lung cancer in at least one clinical data source.

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. Survival

    Time frame: From radiotherapy until death

    Retrospective data will be collected from each included patient from start of radiotherapy until end of study or death (an expected average of 10 years).

Secondary outcomes

  1. Local control

    Time frame: From start of treatment until death,

    Data will be collected from inclusion in the study until end of study of death (an expected average time frame of 10 years) concerning the local control of this tumour.

  2. Distant metastases

    Time frame: From treatment until end of study

    Data concerning the possible occurence of distant metastases will be collected from each patient from inclusion until end of study or date of death (an expected average time frame of 10 years).

  3. Dyspnea

    Time frame: From inclusion until end of study

    From each included patient, dyspnea scores will be collected from start of treatment until end of study or date of death (an expected average time frame of 10 years).

  4. Dysphagia

    Time frame: From treatment until end of study

    Dysphagia scores will be collected from each participating patient from treatment until end of study or date of death (an average time frame of 10 years)
