Subjects will receive a total of 38.4 Gray (Gy) WBRT given over 4 weeks. Subjects will receive 3 GyWBRT on Days 1 and 2 and then 1.8 Gy on the third fourth and fifth days of WBRT treatment during Week 1. Subjects will then receive 1.8 Gy WBRT per day; 5 days out of seven, each week for the next 3 weeks. A total of 4 doses of DepoCyte (50 mg of liposomal ARA-C) will be administered intrathecally. The first dose will be administered on Day 3 (or Day 4 or 5) of Week 1, i.e. the third day of radiotherapy treatment when the dosage is reduced to 1.8 Gy. The second dose will be administered on Day 17(+2 days); the third dose will be administered on Day 31 (+2 days); the fourth dose will be administered on Day 45 (+2 days) to complete the induction phase of the protocol. Subjects will continue to receive an additional 6 doses of DepoCyte one dose every 28 days (+2 days) during the maintenance period. The first dose will be given 28 days after the last dose in the induction phase.

DepoCyte should never be administered more frequently than every 14th day. Subjects will continue to receive an additional 6 doses of DepoCyte one dose every 28 days (+2 days) during the maintenance period. The first dose will be given 28 days after the last dose in the induction phase.

Whole Brain Radio Therapy (WBRT) with sequential Depocyte

Whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) with concomitant Depocyte

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safety of giving Whole Brain Radiotherapy (WBRT) together with intrathecal liposomal cytarabine (DepoCyte®) for patients with leptomeningeal metastases. The study will compare the safety of giving DepoCyte at the same time as WBRT with giving the drug after WBRT is complete.

Study to Demonstrate the Safety of WBR Administered at the Same Time as Intrathecal Liposomal Cytarabine (DepoCyte®) Versus Intrathecal Liposomal Cytarabine (DepoCyte®) Administered After WBR for the Treatment of Solid Tumour Neoplastic Meningitis in Patients With or Without Brain Metastasis.

Phase I Randomised Multi-centre Study to Demonstrate the Safety of WBRT Concomitant to Intrathecal Liposomal Cytarabine (DepoCyte®) Versus WBRT & Sequential Intrathecal Liposomal Cytarabine (DepoCyte®) for Treatment of STNM With or Without Brain Metastasis.
