Conditions

Brain Metastases, EGFR Mutation, Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

Brief summary

This is a multi-center phase III randomized controlled study to assess the efficacy of Gefitinib alone and Gefitinib combination with Pemetrexed/platinum on patients with brain metastasis from non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) harboring EGFR mutation type by intracranial PFS(iPFS),also PFS ,DCR and OS.The side effect is evaluated as well.

Interventions

DRUGGefitinib and Pemetrexed/platinum

Gefitinib 250mg is Taken Orally on day 1-28,combined Pemetrexed (D1)+cisplatin (D1-3) or Pemetrexed (D1) + nedaplatin (D1) chemotherapy, every 28 days

DRUGGefitinib mono-therapy

Gefitinib 250mg is Taken Orally everyday

Patients who had never received therapy (including chemotherapy,WBRT,EGFR-TKI and EGFR monoclonal antibody) after diagnosed brain metastases 3. Patients had at least three metastatic lesions in brain, or patients with 1-2 intracranial lesions who were not suitable for brain radiotherapy, or patients with 1-2 intracranial lesions who refused brain radiotherapy, at least one intracranial lesion with the longest diameter of \>5 mm 4. Adult patients (≥ 18 years and ≤75 years). ECOG Performance Status 0 or 1 Life expectancy of at least 12 weeks.,Haemoglobin ³ 10.0 g/dl, Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ³1.5 x 109/L, platelets ³ 100 x 109/L. Total bilirubin £ 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN). ALT and AST \< 2.5 x ULN in the absence of liver metastases, or \< 5 x ULN in case of liver metastases.
