Consolidative Stereotactic Radiotherapy for Oligo-Residual Advanced EGFR-Mutant NSCLC After First-Line Third-Generation EGFR-TKI Plus Chemotherapy

September 10, 2026 updated by: Zhengfei Zhu, Fudan University

Consolidative Stereotactic Radiotherapy for Oligo-Residual Advanced EGFR-Mutant Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer After First-Line Treatment With Third-Generation EGFR Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor Plus Chemotherapy: A National Multicenter, Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

This national multicenter, randomized controlled clinical trial evaluates the safety and efficacy of consolidative stereotactic radiotherapy in patients with advanced EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer who have oligo-residual disease after four cycles of first-line treatment with third-generation EGFR-TKI plus platinum-based pemetrexed chemotherapy. Eligible participants will be randomized 1:1 to continue third-generation EGFR-TKI plus pemetrexed maintenance therapy alone or to receive stereotactic radiotherapy to all oligo-residual lesions in addition to the same maintenance therapy. The primary endpoint is progression-free survival.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Age 18-75 years.
  • Karnofsky Performance Status score ≥70.
  • Complete whole-body imaging assessment before initiation of first-line third-generation EGFR-TKI plus chemotherapy, with at least one evaluable lesion according to RECIST version 1.1.
  • No disease progression after completion of four cycles of first-line third-generation EGFR-TKI plus chemotherapy and no unresolved grade ≥3 nonhematologic toxicity.
  • Oligo-residual disease after four treatment cycles, with all residual lesions considered suitable for stereotactic radiotherapy by the investigator.
  • Written informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Double primary or multiple primary malignancies, except early skin cancer or cervical carcinoma in situ treated with curative intent and without recurrence or progression for at least five years.
  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding, or considered unsuitable by the investigator for PET/CT or brain MRI examination.
  • History of uncontrolled epilepsy, central nervous system disease, or psychiatric disorder that, in the investigator's judgment, may interfere with informed consent or participant compliance.
  • Residual lesions considered unsuitable for consolidative stereotactic radiotherapy after first-line third-generation EGFR-TKI plus chemotherapy.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Progression-Free Survival (PFS)
Time Frame: 4 years
The time from randomization to disease progression or death of the patient. Patients who have not yet progressed at the time of analysis will be censored at the date of their last contact.
4 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Overall Survival (OS)
Time Frame: 4 years
4 years
Intracranial Progression-Free Survival (iPFS)
Time Frame: 4 years
4 years
Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL)
Time Frame: 4 years
health-related quality of life assessed using the QLQ-C30 and QLQ-LC13 questionnaires
4 years
Incidence of Treatment-Related Toxicities
Time Frame: 4 years
proportion of evaluable participants experiencing treatment-related toxicities, graded according to CTCAE version
4 years

Other Outcome Measures

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment. Types of outcome measures include primary outcome measure and secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
peripheral blood specimens
Time Frame: 4 years
This study requires that peripheral blood specimens be collected as much as possible at the time points specified in the study, and that they be stored and processed in accordance with standard procedures, in order to explore the clinical value of liquid biopsy for oligo-residual disease prediction, early warning of drug resistance, and prognostic assessment.
