Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study is a multicenter, randomized, open-label Phase III trial that compares microwave plus chemotherapy versus chemotherapy in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. The primary endpoint is progression free survival (PFS) and the key secondary endpoint is overall survival (OS). A total of 275 eligible patients will be randomized to receive either microwave ablation combinated with first-line platinum-based doublet chemotherapy(138) or first-line platinum-based doublet chemotherapy(137) in a 1:1 ratio until patients. The response of microwave ablation will be assessed by the expert consensus for thermal ablation of primary and metastatic lung tumors. Tumor response and progression will be assessed according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors(RECIST)1.1.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Patients will be randomized to treated with microwave ablation and chemotherapy or treated with chemotherapy alone.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Microwave plus chemotherapy

In combination group, patients will be treated with microwave ablation in primary tumor sites followed by chemotherapy (For non-squamous cell lung cancer,patients will be treated with pemetrexed,500mg/m2, d1, ivdrip, or docetaxel,75mg/m2, d1, ivdrip or gemcitabine 1250mg/m2, d1 d8, ivdrip,or novelbine 25mg/m2 d1 d8, ivdrip, paclitaxel 175mg/m2 d1 ivdrip plus cisplatin 75mg/m2, d1 d2, ivdrip or carboplatin with an area under the curve of 5 d1 ivdrip. For squamous cell lung cancer,patients will be treated with docetaxel,75mg/m2, d1, ivdrip or gemcitabine 1250mg/m2, d1 d8, ivdrip plus cisplatin 75mg/m2, d1 d2, ivdrip or carboplatin with an area under the curve of 5 d1 ivdrip;repeated every 3 weeks and up to 6 cycles are administrated )

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Microwave ablation

Intervention Type OTHER

Patients assigned to the combination group will be treated with microwave in the primary tumor site

chemotherapy

In chemotherapy group,patients will be treated with chemotherapy alone(For non-squamous cell lung cancer,patients will be treated with pemetrexed,500mg/m2, d1, ivdrip plus cisplatin 75mg/m2, d1 d2, ivdrip or carboplatin with a area uder the curve of 5 d1 ivdrip. For squamous cell lung cancer,patients will be treated with docetaxel,75mg/m2, d1, ivdrip or gemcitabine 1250mg/m2, d1 d8, novelbine 25mg/m2 d1 d8, ivdrip, paclitaxel 175mg/m2 d1 ivdrip plus cisplatin 75mg/m2, d1 d2, ivdrip or carboplatin with an area under the curve of 5 d1 ivdrip;repeated every 3 weeks and up to 6 cycles are administrated )
