Abstract. We study the large time asymptotic behavior of solutions to the Cauchy problem for the fractional derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation in one space dimension \begin{equation*} \left\{ \begin{array}{c} i\partial_{t}u-\Lambda ( -i\partial_x) u=i\lambda \partial_x F(u) , t>0, x\in \mathbb{R}, \\ u(0,x) =u_{0}(x) , x\in \mathbb{R}, \end{array} \right. \end{equation*} where \begin{equation*} \Lambda (-i\partial_x) =\frac{1}{\alpha}(-\partial_x^2)^{\frac{\alpha}{2}}=\frac{1}{\alpha} |\partial_x|^{\alpha}, \alpha>3, F(u) =|u|^{\alpha -1}u \end{equation*} and $\lambda \in \mathbb{R}$. The fractional derivative $|\partial_x| ^{\alpha}=\mathcal{F}^{-1}|\xi|^{\alpha}\mathcal{F}$, where $\mathcal{F}$ stands for the Fourier transformation and $\mathcal{F}^{-1}$ is its inverse transformation. We have the mass conservation law $\int_{\mathbb{R}}u(t,x)dx=\int_{\mathbb{R}}u_0(x)dx$. We prove that solutions are stable in the neighborhood of the self-similar solutions under the non-zero total mass condition $\int_{\mathbb{R}}u_0(x)dx\neq 0.$
