Sumario:[Simple Summary] The search for prognostic and/or predictive gene signatures of the response to radiotherapy treatment can significantly aid clinical decision making. These signatures can condition the fractionation, the total dose to be administered, and/or the combination of systemic treatments and radiation. The ultimate goal is to achieve better clinical results, as well as to minimize the adverse effects associated with current cancer therapies. To this end, we analyzed the intrinsic radiosensitivity of 15 NSCLC lines and found the differences in gene expression levels between radiosensitive and radioresistant lines, resulting in a potentially applicable six-gene signature in NSCLC patients. The six-gene signature had the ability to predict overall survival and progression-free survival (PFS), which could translate into a prediction of the response to the cancer treatment received.
