Angiogenesis inhibition represents a significant therapeutic target in breast cancer; however, despite its theoretical feasibility, progress in advanced breast cancer has been slow. Currently, there is a lack of prospective data supporting the selection of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in combination with local therapy. This phase II study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) or whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT) combined with anlotinib in patients with HER2-negative advanced breast cancer and brain metastases.

Based on the size, location and number of brain metastases, an appropriate radiotherapy plan is given. Arloxitin can be used starting from the 1st day after radiotherapy to within 1 week. Arloxitin 12 mg, qd (it is recommended to take it before meals and take the medicine at the same time every day), take orally continuously for 2 weeks and then stop for 1 week. A 21-day period constitutes one treatment cycle. During the medication period, if there is a missed dose, if the time from the missed dose to the next dose is less than 12 hours, no additional dose will be given.

RECRUITINGCentral nervous system progression-free survival (CNS-PFS) rate
According to the RANO-BM (Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology Brain Metastases) standard, the 12-month central nervous system progression-free survival (CNS-PFS) rate was determined by at least two experienced neuro-radiologists.
Time frame: 12months
Central nervous system progression-free survival (CNS-PFS)
It is defined as the time from the start of the study treatment for the subject until the first imaging confirmation of intracranial disease progression (PD) or any cause of death. The assessment of intracranial lesions is based on the RANO-BM standard.
Time frame: 12months
Progression free survival(PFS)
It is defined as the time from the start of the study treatment for the subject until the first imaging confirmation of disease progression (PD) or death due to any cause. The assessment of intracranial lesions is based on the RANO-BM criteria, while the assessment of extracranial lesions is based on the RECIST 1.1 criteria.
Time frame: 12months
Overall survival(OS)
It is defined as the period from the date of receiving the study treatment to the date of death (due to any cause). For subjects who did not experience death, the analysis will be truncated at the time of confirmed survival.
Time frame: 12months
Objective Response Rate of the Central Nervous System (CNS-ORR)
It is defined as the percentage of subjects who achieved complete or partial responses in the central nervous system from the time they began receiving treatment in this study until they left the study group. The assessment is conducted using the RANO-BM criteria.
Time frame: 12months
Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) score
The assessment was conducted using the Karnofsky Performance Status.
Time frame: 12months
Adverse event(AE)
AEs are recorded according to the NCI CTCAE 5.0 standard
Time frame: 12months
Simple Mental State Examination (MMSE) score
The assessment was conducted using the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE).
Time frame: 12months
