NCT01169116 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: PHASE2 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Patients with single brain metastasis without other metastatic site have a better prognosis, and they need a better brain metastasis control. For non-resectable and non-radiosurgical brain metastasis, the gold standard treatment is whole-brain irradiation with 30 Gy in 10 fractions, but the local control is not achieved in most of the cases. This study investigate the possibility to increase radiation dose in this metastasis with exclusive hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy.
