Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 80 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients who underwent hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy planning at our institution from October 2010 to October 2020

Who may be able to join

  • Had histologically proven primary cancer.
  • Had newly diagnosed brain metastases in contrast-enhanced MRI.
  • Brain metastases focus should be measurable.
  • All the patients should safely receive radiotherapy and/or systematic tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

  • Patients with prior intracranial local treatments, such as surgery and radiotherapy without dose prescription in detail
  • Patients with leptomeningeal metastases at first diagnosis.
  • Had synchronous or metachronous malignancies that might affect survival.
  • Had severe systemic diseases, abnormal conditions that might lead to incoordinate behavior during the implementation of clinical measures.

About this study

Official title: The Optimal Sequence of Intracranial Radiotherapy Compared to Systematic Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors for Gene-driven Brain Metastases in Targeted Treatment Era

The investigators conducted a single institutional, retrospective cohort study to demonstrate the appropriate treatment strategy of upfront intracranial radiotherapy or upfront targeted therapy in patients with brain metastases, including an assessment of its feasibility and toxicity.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Intracranial progression-free survival

    The survival time of patients before any intracranial progression

    Measured: The interval from the start of initial intracranial treatment to first documented intracranial progression, or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 3 to 5 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Overall survival

    The survival time of patients

    Measured: The time from the date of initial intracranial treatment until death from any cause or censored on the last follow-up, whichever came first, assessed up to 3 to 5 years

  2. Brain metastasis-specific survival

    The survival time of patients dead from brain metastases

    Measured: The interval from the start of initial intracranial treatment to death from brain metastases or censored on the last follow-up, whichever came first, assessed up to 3 to 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of The Optimal Sequence of Radiotherapy and Systematic Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors in Treating Brain Metastases, 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 5 inclusion and 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Apr 2021. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Intracranial progression-free survival (time frame: The interval from the start of initial intracranial treatment to first documented intracranial progression, or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 3 to 5 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04832672, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 6 Apr 2021.
