Brief summary: This project is aim to explore non-increased-intracranial-pressure symptomatic brain metastases of NSCLC, and if the OS of secondary brain radiotherapy after recurrence with Erlotinib is better than Erlotinib with concurrent brain radiotherapy. Treatment group are treated with Erlotinib until brain tumor progression, then gave brain radiotherapy, and continued to take Erlotinib till extracranial lesions progression. Control group are Erlotinib with concurrent brain radiotherapy, and continued to take Erlotinib after radiotherapy until recurrence or termination for other reasons.


Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

11. Routine blood test requirements: WBC≧3.0×109/L, NE≧1.8×109/L, PLT≧90×109/L，no requirement for Hb;
12. Blood glucose requirements: within the normal range, diabetic patients are receiving treatment and their glucose was being controlled in a steady state;
13. Female patients in childbearing age: HCG (-);
14. Patients signed an inform Consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

5. Those with any unstable medical status (including active infection, uncontrolled hypertension, unstable angina, congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction (within one year before treatment initiation), and severe arrhythmia, liver, kidney or metabolic disease requiring drug therapy);
6. Those with any other disease, neurological or metabolic dysfunction, and physical examination or laboratory test results showed that the study drugs may increase the risk of treatment-related complications;
