About this study

Official title: Real-world Study of Prophylactic Cranial Irradiation After Immunotherapy Combined With Chemotherapy for Extensive-stage Small Cell Lung Cancer

The prognosis of extensive-stage small cell lung cancer is still very poor, even for those who received chemotherapy and immunotherapy. This experimental study is a real-world research design to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of prophylactic cranial irradiation in patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer who with first-line chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy.

Read the detailed description

This study is a prospective trial. This study included ES-SCLC patients who response after standard first-line treatment, and aimed to explore the safety and effectiveness of prophylactic cranial irradiation in this treatment modality.

The primary endpoint is progression-free survival in the brain.The secondary endpoints includes OS, PFS. The indicators for evaluating safety are the incidence and severity of adverse events.The exploratory endpoint is the molecular biomarkers for efficacy and toxicity predicting from tumor tissue and peripheral blood TMB.

The trial was designed by the National Cancer Center/Cancer Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College. The hypothesis is that preventive brain irradiation is safe and effective in the treatment of extensive SCLC combined with chemotherapy and immunotherapy.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-free survival in the brain

    The length of time during and after treatment for a disease in which the patient lives with the disease but the intracranial lesions do not worsen

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    The length of time during and after the treatment of a disease that a patient lives with the disease but it does not get worse

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Overall survival (OS)

    The time from treatment to death from any cause

    Measured: 1 year

  3. Adverse events

    The incidence and severity of adverse events related to treatments

    Measured: 1 year

  4. The cognitive function of the patient

    Use the Montreal Cognitive Screening Scale (MoCA) to score, the total score is 30 points, ≥26 points are normal

    Measured: 1 year

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Liu Wen-Yang, MD (8613810753633, liuwenyang26@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Progression-free survival in the brain (time frame: 1 year). 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 NCT04947774, which also lists 16 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 22 Sep 2021.
