Temozolomide in Preventing Brain Metastases in Small Cell Lung Cancer

March 27, 2019 updated by: Haihong Yang, MD, Pricipal investigator, Guangzhou Medical University

Radiation Versus Temozolomide in Preventing Brain Metastases in Limited Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer

To investigate the response of temozolomide versus prophylactic cranial radiotherapy in preventing brain metastases in completed or partial remission limited small cell lung cancer patients.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

We'd like to investigate the 2-year incidence rate of brain metastases in completed or partial remission limited small cell lung cancer patients who received temozolomide only for 12 months or 25-30Gy prophylactic cranial radiotherapy in preventing brain metastases.
