简要总结
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Thalidomide may stop the growth of cancer by stopping blood flow to the tumor. Combining whole-brain radiation therapy with thalidomide and temozolomide may kill more tumor cells.
PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining whole-brain radiation therapy with thalidomide and temozolomide in treating patients who have newly diagnosed brain metastases.
详细描述
OBJECTIVES:
- Determine the overall median survival time of patients with newly diagnosed brain metastases treated with whole-brain radiotherapy in combination with thalidomide and temozolomide.
- Determine the radiographic response rate, median time to tumor progression, and median time to neurologic response and progression in patients treated with this regimen.
- Determine the cause of death of patients treated with this regimen.
- Determine the toxicity of this regimen in these patients.
- Assess quality of life of patients treated with this regimen.
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.
Patients undergo radiotherapy daily 5 days a week for 3 weeks. Beginning on the day before the first radiation treatment, patients receive oral thalidomide once daily and oral temozolomide once daily for 21 days. Patients continue to receive thalidomide daily for up to 2 years in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Quality of life is assessed at baseline, 1 and 3 months after completing radiotherapy, and then every 3 months thereafter.
