Official title
"A Phase II Trial of Hippocampal-Sparing Cranial Irradiation (PCI) for Small-Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC)"
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The Investigators are looking to compare standard treatment for the management of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) which is prophylactic cranial Irradiation (PCI) (shown to be very good in patient survival) with cranial sparing PCI. Although standard of care PCI is successful in patient survival it also has neurologic side-effects. The Investigators are hoping the cranial sparing PCI has the same positive survival results with the added benefit of lowering neurological side-effects.
