Tumor Bed Hypofractionated IMRT After Surgery for Patients With Single,Large Brain Metastases From Solid Tumor

Study Purpose

Investigators designed a study of a multimodality approach: surgery followed by hypofractionated intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) using VMAT approach for patients with single, large brain metastases from solid primary tumor

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

No
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT02576522
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Phase 2

Additional Details

Investigators designed a study to recruit patients with single, large brain metastases from solid primary tumor for a multimodality approach: surgery followed by hypofractionated intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) using VMAT approach. The potential advantage of this treatment is to improve local control and to reduce toxicity compared with WBRT or SRS after surgical resection.
