Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Group 1,Intra-pemetrexed, radiotherapy
The treatment regimen consisted of intrathecal chemotherapy (via lumbar puncture, pemetrexed 10 mg, plus dexamethasone 5 mg, once per week, 5-8 times, 4-7 weeks in total) and radiotherapy. Radiotherapy consisted of fractionated, conformal radiation given at a daily dose of 2 Gy. The planning volume consisted of sites of symptomatic disease, bulky disease observed on magnetic resonance imaging, including the whole brain and basis cranii received 40 Gy in 20 fractions, 4 weeks in total, and/or segment of spinal canal received 40-50 Gy.
Pemetrexed
Pemetrexed, 10 mg,intrathecal injection, plus dexamethasone 5 mg, once per week, 5 to 8 times, 4 to 7 weeks in total.
Dexamethasone
Dexamethasone, 5 mg, intrathecal injection, simultaneously with pemetrexed, once per week, 5 to 8 times, 4 to 7 weeks in total.
Radiotherapy
The sites of symptomatic disease, bulky disease observed on MRI, including the whole brain and basis cranii, 40 Gy in 20 fractions;and/or segment of spinal canal received 40-50 Gy in 20-25 fractions.
