Alkylating Agents

Oral temozolomide 75mg/m2/day for 14 days, during radiation treatment, and later on temozolomide 100 mg/m2/day at 14 days on/14 days off, until unacceptable toxicity or evidence of disease progression for up to 6 cycles from initial treatment. Radiotherapy (as in Intervention 2).

Temozolomide and radiotherapy

2 regimens are allowed: a) 20 fractions of 2 Gray each, administered on days 1 to 5, 8 to 12, 15 to 19, and 22 to 26; b) 10 fractions of 3 Gray each, administered on days 1 to 5 and 8 to 12.

Whole brain radiotherapy

This is a phase II, randomized, multicenter, open-label study designed to assess the safety and tolerability of concomitant chemotherapy with low-dose temozolomide during whole brain radiation and later on at 14 days on/14 days off schedule in patients with cerebral metastases from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The response to temozolomide will be evaluated by clinical follow up and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) performed every 2 months. Progression-free survival at 6 months, duration of overall survival, and quality of life will also be evaluated.

Randomized Phase II Study: Temozolomide (TMZ) Concomitant to Radiotherapy Followed by Sequential TMZ in Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) Patients With Central Nervous System (CNS) Metastasis Versus Radiotherapy Alone

The occurrence of progression will be compared between the study groups by Kaplan-Meier curves. Responsiveness to temozolomide will be evaluated by brain Magnetic Resonance Imanging (MRI)/Computed Tomography (CT), thorax CT, and Quality of Life (QoL) assessments. Progression-free is defined as \<25% increase in tumor size on CT or MRI.
