FSRT Combines With Bevacizumab for Multiple Brain Metastases in Lung Adenocarcinoma

Study Purpose

For non-small cell lung cancer brain metastases, stereotactic radiotherapy is gradually replacing whole brain radiotherapy as the standard treatment. When patients have multiple brain metastases or larger tumors (diameter>2cm), single session stereotactic radiotherapy (SRS) may cause significant neurological damage, so fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (FSRT) is often used. The recent objective remission rate of FSRT is about 50%, and the 1-year intracranial control rate is about 45%, but intracranial progression remains the main factor affecting long-term survival of patients. Bevacizumab is a recombinant humanized monoclonal antibody against vascular endothelial growth factor, which can improve the efficacy of cranial radiotherapy by normalizing neovascularization and improving the hypoxic state of tumor cells. In addition, bevacizumab can improve the abnormal permeability of neovascularization, reduce exudation and extracellular brain edema, thereby further alleviating the toxic side effects associated with brain radiotherapy. Based on this, this prospective, controlled phase III study will explore the efficacy and safety of the combined use of fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy and bevacizumab in multiple brain metastases of lung adenocarcinoma.

Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT07058428
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Additional Details

This prospective, controlled phase III study will explore the efficacy and safety of the combined use of fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy and bevacizumab in multiple brain metastases of lung adenocarcinoma. Patients will be randomly assigned to three groups in a ratio of 2:1:1. The FSRT+beva group receives FSRT radiotherapy+bevacizumab treatment; FSRT targets visible intracranial lesions with a total dose of 30Gy, administered once a day for a total of 5 days, with a fraction dose of 6Gy. Bevacizumab starts on day 1 (one week before FSRT treatment), q3w, A total of 4 treatment courses, intravenous injection, with a dose of 7.5mg/kg. The FSRT group receives simple FSRT radiotherapy; FSRT is targeted at visible intracranial lesions, with a total dose of 30Gy, administered once a day for a total of 5 days, and a fraction dose of 6Gy for segmentation. The WBRT group receives whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT) with a simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) to visible intracranial lesions. The prescribed doses are: 40 Gy total to gross lesions and 30 Gy total to the whole brain, delivered in 10 daily fractions.
