  19 months

• Quality of Life

  3 years

• The purpose of exploring

  3 years

Study Arms (2)

1. WBRT alone

EXPERIMENTAL

Selected 224 patients with multiple brain metastases from NSCLC, they will be randomized to WBRT or Erotinib concurrent WBRT. It was enough to compare the efficacy of Erotinib concurrent WBRT vs. WBRT

Drug: WBRT

2. Erlotinib concurrent WBRT

EXPERIMENTAL

Selected 224 patients with multiple brain metastases from NSCLC, they will be randomized to WBRT or Erotinib concurrent WBRT. It was enough to compare the efficacy of Erotinib concurrent WBRT vs. WBRT

Drug: Erlotinib

Interventions

Erlotinib DRUG

2. Erlotinib concurrent WBRT

WBRT DRUG

1. WBRT alone

• in women of childbearing age, must be in before starting treatment within 7 day of urine pregnancy test and the result is negative, and not in the lactation period, and reproductive age men and women prior to entry into the study, the research process until 90 days after stopping all agree to use reliable methods of contraception;
• can understand and consent.

You may not qualify if:

• patients have been treated with radiation to the brain or to erlotinib and its ingredients allergies;
• mixed with small cell lung cancer patients with components;
• years before other cancers except NSCLC treatment in patients with the start of the study (except for simple operation resection and there are at least 5 consecutive years disease free survival, has been cured of cervical carcinoma in situ, has cured the base cell cancer and bladder epithelial tumor);
• before entering the group 4 weeks received any other investigational drugs;
• judgment according to the researchers, there are serious harm to patient safety or affect the patients completed the study with the disease, and patient compliance with the difference;
