Phase I Dose Escalation Trial of Hypofractionated Radiosurgery for Large Brain Metastasis
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Hypofractionated Radiosurgery for Metastatic Malignant Neoplasm to Brain and Unspecified Adult Solid Tumor, Protocol Specific. Completed, enrolled 24 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of hypofractionated radiosurgery in treating patients with large brain metastasis. Stereotactic radiosurgery can send x-rays directly to the tumor and cause less damage to normal tissue. Giving fractionated stereotactic radiosurgery may kill more tumor cells.
