About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Lung Adenocarcinoma focused on measuring Hypofractionated Radiotherapy, Thymosin Alpha 1, Lung Adenocarcinoma, Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 75 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Newly diagnosed metastatic lung adenocarcinoma harboring sensitizing EGFR mutations (L858R, exon 19 deletion), and showed stable disease after 3 months TKI, evaluated twice by PET/CT scan, brain MRI, and abdomen ultrasound (≥3 measurable lesions, and these lesions haven't received local therapy)
  • Age 18 years or older
  • ECOG Performance Status 0-2
  • Adequate bone marrow, liver and renal function, as specified below: Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 x 109/L; Hemoglobin ≥ 8 g/dL; Platelets ≥ 100 x 109/L; Serum total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) ; AST and ALT ≤ 2.5 x ULN or ≤ 5 x ULN if liver metastases are present; Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x upper limit of normal or creatinine clearance ≥ 60ml/min for patients with creatinine levels above institutional normal
  • For women of child-bearing potential, negative pregnancy test within 14 days prior to starting treatment
  • Men and women of childbearing age must be willing to use effective contraception while on treatment and for at least 3 months thereafter
  • Patients and their family signed the informed consents

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Received chemotherapy before TKI therapy
  • Brain parenchyma or leptomeningeal disease
  • Concurrent malignancies other than non-melanoma skin cancer that require active ongoing treatment
  • Any medical co-morbidities that would preclude radiation therapy.

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

1

Arm Description

After 3 mos TKI, patients showed stable disease take TKI, radiotherapy and thymosin alpha 1 till tumor progression.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

The proportion of patients with an abscopal response assessed at 1-6 months after the radiation therapy
To assess the proportion of patients with an abscopal response (defined as at least a 30% decrease in the longest diameter of the best responding abscopal lesion) at 1-6 months after the radiation therapy

Secondary Outcome Measures

To assess the short-term quality of life (QOL)
FACT-E score at the 4 months after docetaxel consolidation therapy
Rate of CTCAE grade 2 or higher radiation pneumonitis
The investigators will assess the rate of symptomatic radiation pneumonitis in patients who received the radiation therapy
Overall Survival

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The investigators postulated that the exploitation of the pro-immunogenic effects of radiotherapy with thymosin might result in abscopal responses among patients with metastatic cancer. The research is designed to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of patients treated with hypofractionated radiotherapy combined with thymosin alpha 1. An exploratory biomarker analysis in blood and tumor samples is also planned.
