The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of whole brain radiotherapy combined with antirotinib hydrochloride in the treatment of brain metastases in small cell lung cancer
This was a single-center, single-arm trail. Enrolled patients were pathologically diagnosed with small cell lung cancer and had completed at least 4 cycles of first-line chemotherapy. Patients with brain metastases at first visit or during treatment were treated with whole brain radiotherapy combined with anlotinib hydrochloride. Oral antirotinib was started 2 weeks before radiotherapy for brain metastases and stopped for 1 week after 2 weeks. After radiotherapy, antirotinib was continued until tumor progression. Efficacy and toxicity data were collected for evaluation and analysis.

Intracranial progression-free survival
Time from enrollment to intracranial tumor progression or death
Time frame: 6 months
Overall Survival
The time from enrollment to death from any cause was calculated as the time of death. For participants who were lost to follow-up, the time of death was usually the time of the last follow-up.
Time frame: 1 year
progression-free survival
The time from enrollment to tumor progression (any aspect) or death from any cause
Time frame: 6 months
