Background: Intracranial radiation in combination with EGFR targeted therapy demonstrated signals of superiority to EGFR targeted therapy alone based on several observational studies. The timing based on specific criteria is not clear, and we evaluated the efficacy of intervention timing of craniocerebral radiotherapy (RT) combined with epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) on prognosis of patients with EGFR mutant lung adenocarcinoma complicated with brain metastasis.

Methods: In total, 603 patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring EGFR mutations were enrolled in this retrospective study between March 2008-September 2023.

Objective: This study aimed to determine whether the combined use of bevacizumab could improve overall survival (OS) in patients with brain metastasis (BM), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) undergoing cerebral radiotherapy.

Materials And Methods: A total of 237 patients with EGFR-mutant lung adenocarcinoma and BM met the inclusion criteria for this retrospective study, including 102 patients in the bevacizumab treatment group and 135 in the non-bevacizumab group. The Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis.

Background And Purpose: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutant lung cancers are associated with a high risk of developing brain metastases (BM). Craniocerebral radiotherapy is a cornerstone for the treatment of BM, and EGFR-TKIs act on craniocerebral metastases". However, whether EGFR-TKIs combined with craniocerebral radiotherapy can further increase the efficacy and improve the prognosis of patients is unclear.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the prognostic potential of the pre-radiotherapy systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) for the survival of advanced lung adenocarcinoma patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations, which might provide a basis for optimizing the comprehensive treatment scheme.

Methods: A total of 111 lung adenocarcinoma patients with EGFR mutations, who received thoracic radiotherapy, were included in this retrospective study. The primary endpoint of the study was based on the overall survival (OS) of patients.

Background: The systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) has recently emerged as a predictor of survival in non-small cell lung cancer patients. There is also tight correlation between radiotherapy and immune status, and brain metastases (BM) radiotherapy is an important treatment in patients with BM from lung adenocarcinoma harboring epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations. Hence, this study aimed to present the prognostic value of SII and its dynamic changes during BM radiotherapy in EGFR-mutant lung adenocarcinoma patients with BM.

Purpose: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutant lung cancers have a high risk of developing brain metastases (BM). Whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT), local radiotherapy, and WBRT + Boost are frequently used for treatment of BM. This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the difference in efficacy of these radiotherapy modes in patients with EGFR-mutant lung adenocarcinoma with BMs.
