About

The aim of this randomized study is to investigate local tumor control, survival outcomes,and complications on patients of stage Ⅳ non small-cell lung cancer ,whom based on medication with concurrent primary radiotherapy omitting clinical tumor volume.

Full description

Cancer Statistics,（2020）states that low lung cancer survival rates reflect the large proportion of patients (57%) diagnosed with metastatic disease, for which the 5-year relative survival rate is 5%.With the development of three-dimensional radiotherapy technology, the wide application of comprehensive treatment concept, and the understanding of the relationship between different metastatic state and survival of stage IV NSCLC, prospective and retrospective studies have confirmed that systemic therapy combined with primary tumor three-dimensional radiation Treatment is more conducive to improving symptoms and prolonging survival than medication alone. Some retrospective analysises of stage III NSCLC, omitting clinical target volume of primary tumor with intensity modulated radiotherapy showed no reduction in local control rate and survival time.Omitted CTV in Ⅳ NSCLC patients with primary tumor radiotherapy can make smaller target area, which could push up most of the local stage of late Ⅳ NSCLC patients with primary tumor radiation dose. Prospective studies are needed to further clarify whether omission of target areas may affect local control time, survival time, and radioactive toxicity.

Inclusion criteria

• Patients with pathological or cytological diagnosis, stage IV [UICC 2017 staging eighth edition] NSCLC patients;
• initial treatment (previously did not receive any treatment), it is recommended to complete the detection of driver genes (EGFR / ALK / ROS1) (tissue, blood);
• Age 18 to 80 years old, physical status score ECOG 0 to 2 or KPS ≥ 70 (see Annex 2); Metastatic lesions in the distant area: conscious when brain metastasis; the number of metastatic lesions in the lung does not affect lung function and may be treated with primary and/or partial metastases;
• no radiotherapy, targeted drug therapy and chemotherapy contraindications;
• primary tumor radiotherapy requires IMRT technology;

• metastatic tumor radiotherapy is a three-dimensional radiotherapy technique (IMRT/SRT/SBRT/VMAT, etc.), and large-segment radiotherapy.
• Subjects have no major organ dysfunction, or laboratory test indicators must meet the following requirements: Hematology: normal range according to laboratory standards; cardiac function: normal range; liver function: normal range; renal function: normal range Lung function: FEV1>50%, impaired light-moderate lung function.
• Informed consent (radiation, medication) before treatment;
• The patient has good compliance with the treatment and follow-up received.

Exclusion criteria
