Brief Summary

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

For most of the patients with limited-stage SCLC, thoracic radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy is the standard treatment at present. However, the optimal dose / fraction of thoracic radiotherapy for limited-stage SCLC is still in controversial.This study is designed as a prospecitive randomized non-inferiority trial.

Study Groups

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

Hyperfrationated Arm

Patients with limited-stage SCLC receive etoposide and cisplatin (carboplatin) induction therapy for 2 cycles and then receive thoracic radiotherapy (45 Gy/30 fractions) with concurrent EP/EC chemotherapy for 2cycles, the CTVs of the tumor in lung parenchyma are omitted. Patients who achieve CR or PR then receive prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI, 25 Gy/10 fractions).

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Hyperfractionated radiotherapy

Intervention Type RADIATION

Thoracic radiotherapy (45 Gy/30 fractions) for the Hyperfractionated Arm and prophylactic cranial irradiation (25 Gy/10 fractions).

Etoposide

Intervention Type DRUG

Etoposide will be administered IV 100mg/m2 on days 1-3, 22-24, 43-45 and 64-66.

Cisplatin

Intervention Type DRUG

Cisplatin will be administered IV 80mg/m2 on days 1, 22, 43 and 64.

Hypofrationated Arm

Patients with limited-stage SCLC receive etoposide and cisplatin (carboplatin) induction therapy for 2 cycles and then receive thoracic radiotherapy (45 Gy/15 fractions) with concurrent EP/EC chemotherapy for 2cycles, the CTVs of the tumor in lung parenchyma are omitted. Patients who achieve CR or PR then receive prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI, 25 Gy/10 fractions).

7. Informed consent must be signed.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Histology confirmed the mixed NSCLC components;
2. Other primary malignant tumors appeared within 5 years before the first administration of the study drug, except for locally curable malignant tumors after radical treatment (such as basal or squamous cell skin cancer, superficial bladder cancer or prostate, cervical or breast carcinoma in situ, etc.);
3. Any disease or condition contraindicated by radiotherapy or chemotherapy;
4. Malignant pleural effusion and pericardial effusion;
5. Pregnant and lactating women;
6. The investigator believes that the subject's complications or other circumstances may affect the compliance with the protocol or may not be suitable for the study.
