PRophylactic Cerebral Irradiation or Active MAgnetic Resonance Imaging Surveillance in Small-cell Lung Cancer Patients (PRIMALung Study)
European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer - EORTC
600 participants
Oct 27, 2022
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
In this phase III study, the primary objective is to test with a one-sided significance of 5% whether for the treatment of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) patients, brain MRI surveillance alone is non-inferior in terms of overall survival compared to prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI) combined with brain MRI surveillance in the entire study population.
