Résumé

The treatment of locally advanced nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is becoming a significant challenge because of a growing proportion of patients with unresectable or potentially eligible for surgery after a multimodality treatment, stage II to III disease. Despite a multimodality approach consisting in concurrent chemoradiotherapy, the prognosis remains poor.
