Study Description

This exploratory phase I study will be conducted in West China Hospital, Sichuan University. Three cohorts of whole brain low dose radiotherapy (3 patients per cohort) will be enrolled to determine the safety and efficacy of whole brain low dose radiotherapy combined with ICI and intrathecal chemotherapy for treatment of refractory meningeal metastasis of lung cancer.

Subjects who fulfil all the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria will be enrolled and receive treatment with WB-LDRT at same dose (4 Gy/2f) with diffent cycles (decried as below), PD-1 inhibitor, pemetrexed chemotherapy, and intrathecal pemetrexed every 3 weeks (Q3w) for 4 cycles.

Patients will receive WB-LDRT at 3 cohorts with increasing dose fractions: 4 Gy/2f of one cycle in group 1; 4 Gy/2f of two cycles in group 2; 4 Gy/2f of four cycles in group 3.
