Preoperative vs Postoperative Hypofractionated Radiosurgery for Patients With Large Brain Metastases
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Hypofractionated Radiosurgery (HSRS): HSRS converges multiple radiation beams to deliver a single, large dose of radiation to a discrete tumor target with high precision, thereby minimizing radiation dose to the surrounding normal tissue.
Brain metastases surgical resection: Complete surgical resection of brain lesions with adeguate margins.
Study summary
This is a phase III randomized trial with the aim to compare preoperative HSRS to postoperative HSRS in patients with large at least one BMs from solid tumors suitable for surgical resection.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Rate of LMD (leptomeningeal disease) occurrence — 1 year
Rate of LMD occurrence in patients who receive HSRS prior to surgery as compared to patients who receive HSRS after surgery. This assessment will be evaluated through radiological images.
