Abstract
We report quality of life and indirect costs from patient reported outcomes from the ROSEL randomized control trial comparing stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR, also known as stereotactic body radiotherapy or SBRT) versus surgical resection for medically operable stage IA non-small cell lung cancer. ROSEL closed prematurely after accruing and randomizing 22 patients. This exploratory analysis found the global health related quality of life and indirect costs to be significantly favorable and cheaper, with SABR.Entities:
