Abstract
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a heterogeneous disease accounting for approximately 85% of all lung cancers. Only 17% of patients are diagnosed at an early stage. Treatment is multidisciplinary and radiotherapy plays a key role in all stages of the disease. More than 50% of patients with NSCLC are treated with radiotherapy (curative-intent or palliative). Technological advances-including highly conformal radiotherapy techniques, new immobilization and respiratory control systems, and precision image verification systems-allow clinicians to individualize treatment to maximize tumor control while minimizing treatment-related toxicity. Novel therapeutic regimens such as moderate hypofractionation and advanced techniques such as stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) have reduced the number of radiotherapy sessions. The integration of SBRT into routine clinical practice has radically altered treatment of early-stage disease. SBRT also plays an increasingly important role in oligometastatic disease. The aim of the present guidelines is to review the role of radiotherapy in the treatment of localized, locally-advanced, and metastatic NSCLC. We review the main radiotherapy techniques and clarify the role of radiotherapy in routine clinical practice. These guidelines are based on the best available evidence. The level and grade of evidence supporting each recommendation is provided.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a variable entity, encompassing bulky primary tumors, nodal involvement or both. Multidisciplinary evaluation is essential to discuss multiple treatment options, to outline optimal management and to examine the main debated topics and critical issues not addressed by current trials and guidelines that influence daily clinical practice. AREAS COVERED From March to May 2021, 5 meetings were scheduled in a webinar format titled 'Radio Talk' due to the COVID-19 pandemic; the faculty was composed of 6 radiation oncologists from 6 different Institutions of Italy, all of them were the referring radiation oncologist for lung cancer treatment at their respective departments and were or had been members of AIRO (Italian Association of Radiation Oncology) Thoracic Oncology Study Group. The topics covered included: pulmonary toxicity, cardiac toxicity, radiotherapy dose, fractionation and volumes, unfit/elderly patients, multidisciplinary management. EXPERT OPINION The debate was focused on the unmet needs triggered by case reports, personal experiences and questions; the answers were often not univocal, however, the exchange of opinion and the contribution of different centers confirmed the role of multidisciplinary management and the necessity that the most critical issues should be investigated in clinical trials.

Abstract
As the main type of lung cancer, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a common cancer which is characterized by low 5-year survival rate and worse prognosis. Nowadays, some studies show that the low survival rate and worse prognosis are due to the resistance to radiotherapy caused by circRNA. Therefore, to find out the relationship between circRNA and radiotherapy resistance of NSCLC was imoprtant. According to research the relevant literatures, the relationship between circRNA and radiotherapy resistance of NSCLC was explored. CircRNA plays an important role in the invasion, metastasis, proliferation and treatment resistance of NSCLC. The radiation resistance of tumor cells induced by circRNA has become a crucial problem in radiotherapy. CircRNA plays an important role in the radiotherapy resistance of NSCLC.
