Brief Title: 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.

Official Title: 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.

Study ID: NCT00854867

Conditions

Solid Tumour Neoplastic Meningitis

Brain Metastases

Interventions

Whole Brain Radio Therapy (WBRT) with sequential Depocyte

Whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) with concomitant Depocyte

Study Description

Brief Summary: 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.
