Chemoradiation has been the standard treatment of stage Ⅲ unresectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) for a long period of time. However, the clinical efficacy of chemoradiation has not been significantly improved in recent two decades. In the past 2-3 years, the role of immune-checkpoint inhibitors in metastatic NSCLC has been persistently strengthened. Moreover, the synergistic effect between radiotherapy and immune-checkpoint blockade has been conformed in pre-clinical and clinical studies. Recent clinical trials have demonstrated that the combination of radiotherapy and immune-checkpoint blockade has been proven to be more effective in the treatment of stage Ⅲ unresectable NSCLC. In this article, the latest clinical studies since 2017 regarding the application value of this combined treatment of stage Ⅲ unresectable NSCLC were summarized.
