Investigating Pre-Operative Stereotactic Radiosurgery for Brain Metastases

Phase N/A

This study investigates the use of pre-operative stereotactic radiosurgery followed by surgery in patients with brain metastases. Brain metastases occur when cancer cells spread to the brain from another part of the body. The goal is to evaluate how well this treatment approach controls the cancer in the brain six months after treatment.

Participants will undergo a procedure called stereotactic radiosurgery, which is a type of radiation therapy that precisely targets brain tumors. This will be followed by surgical removal of the tumor within 1 to 3 days. The study will assess the effectiveness of this treatment in controlling the brain metastases.

  • Who can participate: Adults with 1 to 4 brain metastases confirmed by MRI or CT scan, who are candidates for both radiosurgery and surgical resection, are eligible. Patients must not have received anti-VEGF therapy within 6 weeks prior to the study.
  • Study details: Participants will receive stereotactic radiosurgery, followed by surgery to remove brain tumors. This study does not involve a placebo.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
