Trial Identification

Brief Title: Phase II Randomized Study of Stereotactic Radiosurgery Plus Fractionated Whole-Brain Radiotherapy Vs Fractionated Whole-Brain Radiotherapy Alone for Multiple Primary or Metastatic Brain Tumors

Official Title:

Study ID: NCT00004659

Conditions

Brain Neoplasms

Study Description

Brief Summary: OBJECTIVES: I. Evaluate whether stereotactic radiosurgery provides local control at multiple sites in patients with primary or metastatic brain tumors, controlled systemic disease, and preserved neurologic function. II. Examine survival, clinical outcome, and local tumor imaging response in these patients.

Detailed Description: PROTOCOL OUTLINE: This is a randomized study. Tumor size and number are confirmed prior to randomization. Patients are stratified by participating institution. Patients are randomly assigned to 1 of 2 treatment groups. One group is treated with fractionated whole-brain irradiation using megavoltage equipment. The second group receives stereotactic radiosurgery plus fractionated whole-brain radiotherapy. Stereotactic radiosurgery involves irradiation of all tumors to the margins on stereotactic computerized tomography or magnetic resonance imaging. Either treatment may be administered first; the second treatment begins within 1 month of the first. Concurrent anticonvulsants and steroids are allowed. Patients are followed for change in size and number of tumors at 1, 3, and 6 months; follow-up clinical exams are performed at least every 2 months.
