Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Tumors Near the Spinal Cord
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Spinal Tumors. Completed, enrolled 21 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this research study is to determine if Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) is a good way to treat tumors near the spinal cord. Patients will either receive a single treatment or 25 days of treatment given once-a-day, Monday through Friday for about 5 continuous weeks. Our protocol uses life expectancy, patient preference, and tumor size to determine whether SBRT is delivered with 1 or 25 treatments. The single treatment dose is 15 Gy. The 25 treatment group is 70 Gy at 2.8 Gy/treatment.
