Brief Summary
This trial studies cardiac changes after radiation or chemo-radiation for the treatment of lung or esophageal cancer that has not spread to other places in the body (non-metastatic) or has not come back (non-recurrent). Continuous cardiac monitoring with an implanted device may help to identify cardiac changes that would remain unnoticed, and facilitate the treatment of these early cardiac changes as part of standard care.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Proportion of Participants With a Cardiac Event at 12 Months
Assessed as any cardiac event after registration, including electrophysiological changes as defined by the continuous insertable cardiac monitor (ICM); congestive heart failure (CHF); myocardial infarction; pericarditis or myocarditis; cardiac ablation or cardiac pacemaker; cardiac stent placement or any coronary procedure for coronary damage; or any cardiac event as defined by the patients' medical records or autopsy if done.
Up to 12 months
Secondary Outcomes (9)

Baseline up to 12 months
Study Arms (1)
Observational (cardiac monitoring)
Patients receive cardiac monitor implants then undergo standard of care RT or CRT at the discretion of the treating physician. Patients also undergo blood sample collection at baseline, 4 weeks, 3, 9, and 12 months.
Interventions
Undergo biospecimen collection
Undergo CRT
Undergo RT
Eligibility Criteria
Non-metastatic, non-recurrent lung and esophageal cancer patients who are receiving thoracic radiotherapy
You may qualify if:
- Age \>= 18 years
- Planned standard of care curative thoracic RT or CRT with anticipated heart V40 \> 20 cc (At least 20 cc of the heart should receive a dose of 40 gray \[Gy\] or higher)
- Able to follow-up at all specified standard of care time-points
- Patients can receive treatment as part of the standard of care or in a different study
- Receiving radiation treatment to an area close to the heart, for example gastroesophageal junction cancer, hilar lung cancer, or mainstem bronchus lung cancer
- Any type of systemic therapy or surgery before during or after radiation is acceptable
- Prior radiation to other areas is acceptable
- Planned radiation doses equal or higher than 40 Gy
You may not qualify if:
- Metastatic disease
- Recurrent disease
- Patient receiving radiation prescription doses lower than 40 Gy
- No prior radiation that included any part of the heart is acceptable
- No thoracic re-irradiation
