Summary

This is a phase 3, randomized, controlled clinical trial comparing two brain-directed treatment strategies for adult patients with extensive brain metastases from lung adenocarcinoma. The trial compares fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy combined with bevacizumab (FSRT-Bev) versus hippocampus-avoidant whole-brain radiotherapy with simultaneous integrated boost (HA-WBRT-SIB). The main objectives are to evaluate intracranial tumor control and preservation of neurocognitive function .

Patients will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive either FSRT plus bevacizumab or HA-WBRT-SIB. In the experimental group, FSRT is delivered to visible brain tumors over 5 daily treatments (total 30 Gy, 6 Gy per fraction). Bevacizumab is given intravenously every 3 weeks for 4 cycles. In the control group, patients receive hippocampus-avoidant whole-brain radiation (25 Gy) with a simultaneous dose boost to metastatic lesions (40 Gy total) over 10 daily treatments.

Conditions

Interventions

RADIATION

FSRT

The FSRT-bevacizumab group receives FSRT plus bevacizumab. FSRT targets visible intracranial lesions, with a total dose of 30 Gy administered once daily for 5 fractions (6 Gy per fraction).

RADIATION

HA-WBRT-SIB

The HA-WBRT-SIB group receives whole-brain radiotherapy with hippocampal avoidance and a simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) to visible intracranial lesions. A total dose of 25 Gy is delivered to the whole brain, while visible lesions are simultaneously boosted to 40 Gy. Treatment is administered once daily for a total of 10 fractions.

DRUG

Bevacizumab

Bevacizumab is initiated one week before the start of FSRT and administered every 3 weeks for a total of 4 cycles, via intravenous injection at a dose of 7.5 mg/kg.
