Brief Title: Hippocampal-sparing Whole Brain Radiotherapy for Brain Metastases From Breast Cancer
Official Title: Whole Brain Irradiation With Hippocampal Sparing for Brain Metastases From Breast Cancer: Neurocognitive Function and Prognosis Analysis
Study ID: NCT03002532
Brief 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.
