Intracavitary Carrier-embedded Cs131 Brachytherapy for Recurrent Brain Metastases: a Randomized Phase II Study

Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center·interventional·Posted Dec 30, 2020·Updated Jun 4, 2026

In Brief

A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Craniotomy and Cesium-131 brachytherapy for Recurrent Brain Metastases. Active but no longer recruiting, targeting 103 participants across 6 sites.

Detailed Summary

The purpose of this study is to see if Cs-131 brachytherapy is effective in people with recurrent brain cancer who are scheduled to have brain surgery for removal of their tumor(s). The researchers would like to see whether Cs-131 prevents brain tumors from growing back after surgery.The researchers will compare Cs-131 brachytherapy (which occurs during brain surgery) with the usual approach of brain surgery without brachytherapy. The researchers will compare both the effectiveness and safety of the two approaches.
