About this trial

The aim of this randomized study is to investigate local tumor control,survival outcomes and complications on patients of liver metastasis in small cell lung cancer.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Intrahepatic progression -free survial(Intrahepatic-PFS)

Intrahepatic progression -free survial is defined as the duration of time from start of treatment to time of progression of hepatic metastasis.

Time frame
UP to 5years
2

Overall survival (OS)

Overall survival is defined as the time interval from date of diagnosis to date of death from any cause.

Time frame
UP to 5years

Secondary outcomes

1

Progression-free survival(PFS)

PFS is defined as the duration of time from start of treatment to time of progression or death,whichever occurs first.

Time frame
UP to 5years
2

Adverse events(toxicities)

The descriptions and grading scales found in the revised Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events(CTCAE 4.0) will be utilized for all toxicity reporting.

Time frame
