About this study

Official title: 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.

Read the 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.

Being tested

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing temozolomide and prophylaxis cranial radiotherapy in people with Small Cell Lung Cancer and Metastatic Carcinoma, run by Guangzhou Medical University 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 10 inclusion and 5 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Mar 2019. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Contact Haihong Yang, MD (862083062825, bjrf2009@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

2-year incidence of brain metastases (time frame: 2 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 28 Mar 2019.
