Purpose: To investigate the efficacy of concurrent hy-pe ctionated radiation therapy (HFX RT) and low-dose daily chemotherapy (CHT) in stage III non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Patients and Methods: Between January 1990 and December 1991, 131 patients with histologically or cyto-logically confirmed stage III NSCLC, Karnofsky perfor-mance status (KPS) _ 50, and no previous therapy were randomly treated as follows: group I, HFX RT with 1.2 Gy twice daily to a total dose of 69.6 Gy (n = 66); and group II, same HFX RT with CHT consisting of 50 mg of carboplatin (CBDCA) and 50 mg of etoposide (VP-16) given on each RT day (n = 65). Results: Group II patients had a significantly longer suiv- time than group I patients, with a median sur
