Abstract
We performed a prospective study of circulating immune cell changes after stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) in 50 early-stage NSCLC patients. We found no significant increase in CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes at first follow-up (the primary endpoint) but detected a significant increase in expanding Ki-67+CD8+ and Ki-67+CD4+ T-cell fractions in patients treated with 10 Gy or less per fraction. SBRT can induce significant expansion in circulating effector T-cells immediately post-treatment.
