Thorax 2012;67(Suppl 2):A1–A204 A47 Results Median survival is 27.4 months in the concurrent arm and 18.6 months in the sequential arm. Two year survival rates are 54% and 42% respectively. Toxicity was acceptable and similar in both arms. Documented local relapse was 10% in the concurrent arm and 22% in the sequential arm. Quality of Life was measured prospectivly in all patients, there being no significant difference in either arm. In comparison with 16 published RCTs, comprising 1733 patients treated with concurrent chemoradiation, the concurrent treatment arm in SOCCAR ranks top in survival with comparable toxicity. These results are recognised as being of major relevance internationally and are the basis of a proposed multi-centre international study.
