Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1) Histologically or cytologically confirmed small cell lung cancer. Combined small cell lung cancer is acceptable. 2) Limited disease 3) Age between 20-75 when registered 4) Performance status (ECOG) 0 or 1 when registered 5) Regardless of measurable lesions 6) No prior chemotherapy 7) No active multiple cancer 8) The latest clinical laboratory test within 14 days prior to registration meets the following; 1. Neutrophil count >=1500 / mcL 2. Platelet count >=10X104 / mcL 3.Total-Bilirubin ==92 % 8. Radiologists expect sufficient respiratory function to be preserved after the chemoradiotherapy. Calculating the actual value of V20(volume of normal lung irradiated over 20 Gy compared to all lung volume) or proportion of irradiation field for one-lung is not necessary before registration and the estimation by chest X ray or computed tomography is acceptable. Evaluation criteria whether desirable respiratory function is preserved after radiotherapy is V20 =<35 . 9) Written informed consent
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1) Lobectomy is acceptable 2) Symptoms by pericardial effusion 3) Urgent radiation therapy is necessary for superior vena cava syndrome. 4) Persistent angina, myocardial infarction within three months, persistent heart failure 5) Persistent diabetes 6) Persistent Hypertension 7) Active systemic infection calling for treatment 8) Pregnant, possibly pregnant, postpartum within 28 days, breastfeeding, men considering childbirth. 9) Body temperature over 38.0 degrees Celcius 10) Mental disorder or symptoms interfere with daily life and judged to be inappropriate to enroll. 11) Continuous intravenous or oral administration of steroids or immunosuppressants 12) HBs antigen positive or HCV antibody positive. 13) HIV antibody positive (not necessarily examined) 14) Computed tomography shows interstitial pneumonia, pulmonary fibrosis or emphysema. 15) Other in appropriate complications
