Icotinib Combined With WBRT For NSCLC Patients With Brain Metastases and EGFR Mutation

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
Brain Metastases
Interventions
Radiation: Whole brain radiotherapy
Registration Number
NCT01516983
Lead Sponsor
Betta Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd.
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Icotinib at different dose levels in combination with whole brain radiotherapy for NSCLC patients with brain metastases and EGFR mutation.

Detailed Description

The long-term control of brain metastases becomes a clinical challenge. Whole brain radiotherapy, the standard treatment for patients with multiple brain metastases, can only bring a modest survival improvement around 3-6 months. EGFR-TKIs like icotinib with its proven activity in non-small cell lung cancer may provide clinical benefits in such patients.
