This study aims to explore the safety and efficacy of eliminating the planning target volume (PTV) margins based on MRI-guided adaptive stereotactic radiotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with brain metastasis.
This study aims to explore the safety and efficacy of eliminating the planning target volume (PTV) margins based on MRI-guided adaptive stereotactic radiotherapy for NSCLC patients with brain metastasis. In this study, patients will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to the study group or the control group. Patients in the study group will receive MRI-guided adaptive stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) (without PTV expansion margin), while patients in the control group will receive CT-guided conventional standard SRT (with PTV expansion margin). After the completion of treatment, patients will be followed up regularly to assess safety and efficacy.

RECRUITINGRadiation-related brain necrosis incidence rate
"Radiation-related brain necrosis" refers to brain tissue damage that occurs as a result of radiation therapy. It can be detected by brain MRI imaging.

intracranial progression-free survival rate
The percentage of patients who, after one year of treatment, have not experienced any progression of their intracranial disease.
Time frame: 1 year
Objective response rate
To evaluate the effectiveness of a treatment for brain tumors based on RECIST 1.1 criteria.
Time frame: 1-year
Overall survival
The percentage of patients who are alive after one year of treatment.
Time frame: 1 year
Radiation-related Neurotoxicity
"Neurotoxicity" refers to the harmful effects that certain substances or conditions can have on the nervous system, which was examined based on RECIST 1.1 criteria.
