Background

The use of radiation therapy to treat cancer dates back almost to the discovery of radiation itself. Despite advances in chemotherapy, radiation remains the  primary therapy for the majority of patients with solid tumors. For this reason, it can be important to evaluate the impact of a novel therapeutic in a setting where radiation therapy is also part of the treatment regimen.
