About this study

Official title: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Study for Prophylactic Cranial Irradiation After Chemotherapy and Thoracic Radiation Therapy in Patients With Extensive-stage Small Cell Lung Cancer

prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI)was verified to decrease the brain metastases rates and improve the overall survival(OS)for patients with limited stage small cell lung cancer.We hypothesis that patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer after chemotherapy and thoracic radiation can also benefit from PCI.

Read the detailed description

Patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer achieving CR or PR after chemotherapy and thoracic radiation therapy were randomly divided into observation group and prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI) group to evaluate the effect of PCI on survival after radiation therapy for thoracic lesions. To preliminarily analyze the clinical characteristics of patients who would benefit from thoracic radiation therapy plus PCI. To explore the optimal treatment modality after chemotherapy + thoracic radiation therapy in patients with extensive-stage SCLC.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing prophylactic cranial irradiation in people with Small-cell Lung Cancer, run by Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences 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 7 inclusion and 3 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 2 Sep 2020. 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 phase mean?

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 zongmei zhou, master (86 13801389769, zhouzongmei2013@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

overall survival (time frame: 2 year). 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 2 Sep 2020.
