About this study

Official title: Gefitinib Alone or With Concomitant Whole Brain Radiotherapy for Patients Harboring an EGFR Mutation With Multiple Brain Metastases From Non-Small-cell Lung Cancer: a Phase II/III Randomized Controlled Trial

  1. Compare the effect and safety of gefitinib alone with gefitinib plus concomitant WBRT(whole-brain radiotherapy ) in treatment of NSCLC patients harboring an EGFR mutation with multiple BM.
  2. Verify the failure pattern of NSCLC patients harboring an EGFR mutation with multiple BM.
  3. Explore the rescuable therapy after progression of disease.
Read the detailed description

All patients will be randomized to receive gefitinib or gefitinib concurrent WBRT until progression of disease. Gefitinib concurrent WBRT, patients were given gefitinib 250mg per day concurrently with WBRT(whole-brain radiotherapy ). Dose reduction was allowed for intolerable adverse effects such as rash(grade 4)、diarrhea(grade 3-4) or non hematological toxicity(grade 3-4) from 250mg per day to 250mg every other day then to 250mg every three days if needed. WBRT was delivered in 3.0 Gy(Gray)fractions once per day 5 days per week to a total dose of 30Gy (10 fractions). Radiation was delivered as opposed lateral 6-MV(Micro Voltage) beams with Varian linear accelerator.

    Measured: 3 years

  3. Health-related quality of life

    measured by ECGO(Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group) PS (Performance Status)

    Measured: 3 years

  4. Mental Status

    measured by scale of MMSE( Mini Mental Status Examination)

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Gefitinib and WBRT in people with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer and Brain Metastases, run by Shanghai Chest Hospital at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 17 inclusion and 21 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Jan 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Liyan JIang, M.D,Ph.D. (18017321302, liyanjiangxkyy@sina.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Time to progression (time frame: 12-14 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Jan 2015.
