About this study

Official title: A Retrospective, Multicenter Case-control Study of Radiotherapy Combined With Immunotherapy for Brain Metastases of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

This is a Retrospective, Multicenter, Controlled Study to Evaluate Immunotherapy and Radiotherpay for Brain Lesions as a Potential Treatment for Patients with Brain Metastasis in non-small cell lung cancer

Being tested
PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitorDrug

    In non-small cell lung cancer, patients with brain metastases received radiotherapy for brain lesions and immunotherapy (including sequential and concurrent model). Those patients would enter the trial group; After patients experiencing PD in this group, follow-up treatment until tumor progression again or death

Study groups in NCT04835025
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Control group (radiotherapy group)In non-small cell lung cancer, patients with brain metastases received radiotherapy for brain lesion (without limitation of dose and treatment method for radiotherapy) , but not receiving immunotherapy. Those patients would enter the control group. After patients experiencing disease progression(PD) in this group, follow-up treatment does not include immunotherapy until tumor progression again or death.
Receives: Drug: PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor

What is being measured

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

  1. progression-free surival

    Progression-free survival: From the first treatment to the date of first documentation of disease progression, or death due to any cause

    Measured: 3 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. overall survival

    Overall survival: From the first administration to death from any cause

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Non Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Tongji 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 9 inclusion and 2 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: paused, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

progression-free surival (time frame: 3 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 NCT04835025, which also lists 13 linked publications.

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 8 Apr 2021.
