Brief Title: Efficacy and Safety of Prophylactic Cranial Irradiation Versus MRI Surveillance in Patients With Limited-stage Small Cell Lung Cancer Who Achieved Remission After First-line Chemoradiotherapy
Official Title: Efficacy and Safety of Prophylactic Cranial Irradiation Versus MRI Surveillance in Patients With Limited-stage Small Cell Lung Cancer Who Achieved Remission After First-line Chemoradiotherapy: a Multicenter Randomized Controlled Phase III Clinical Trial
Study ID: NCT04829708
Brief Summary: This is a prospective, open,multicenter, randomized controlled phase III clinical trial. In patients with LS-SCLC who achieve remission after first-line chemoradiotherapy, the efficacy and safety of PCI or MRI surveillance is evaluated and analyzed. PCI is performed in hopes of preventing spread of cancer into the brain. The use of brain MRI alone may reduce side effects of receiving PCI and prolong patients' lifespan. MRI surveillance alone (delaying radiation until the actual brain metastasis) may be not inferior to PCI.
