Hippocampal-sparing Whole Brain Radiotherapy for Brain Metastases From Breast Cancer

NCT03002532 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 120

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Based on evidence that radiation-induced damage to the hippocampus plays a considerable role in neurocognitive decline after cranial irradiation, hippocampal-sparing whole brain radiation therapy (HS-WBRT) has been proposed. This study will investigate the neurocognitive function and prognosis between HS-WBRT and conventional WBRT for the treatment of brain metastases from breast cancer.
