Phase I Compare OS in Post-CyberKnife Radiosurgery Tx in 1-3 VS 4 or More Brain Metastases

January 20, 2022 updated by: Steven D Chang, Stanford University

A Comparison of Overall Survival Post-CyberKnife Radiosurgery Treatment of Patients With 1-3 Versus 4 or More Brain Metastases

The investigators will learn from this study if the CyberKnife radiosurgery (CK RS) treatment of patients with 1-3 versus 4 or more brain metastases results in the same overall survivals. The importance of this new knowledge will be to determine the treatment efficacy of CK RS with 1-3 versus 4 or more brain metastases. The outcome of this trial would give data to support either the continuation or modification of the CK RS treatment of patients with brain metastases.

Detailed Description

This is registry-based cohort study of patients with brain metastases treated at Stanford University Medical Center (SUMC) with CyberKnife radiosurgery (CK RS). It has two components: (1) a retrospective follow-up of patients treated since 2006, and (2) the accrual of a new cohort of patients treated over a 5-year period from January 15, 2013 to December 31, 2017 and followed for at least one year thereafter. The primary aim of this study is to estimate the effect of the number of brain tumor metastases on survival after adjusting for known risk factors for mortality.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Ages Eligible for Study

21 years to 95 years (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Patients with all types of primary cancers which have metastasized to the brain.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. the presence of a tumor metastasis or tumor metastases to the brain as manifested by the neurological examination and visibility of the metastatic lesion(s) on MRI and CT scans
  2. a Karnofsky performance status (KPS) score of greater than or equal to 60.

Exclusion Criteria:

The exclusion criteria are the converse of the above, i.e. patients without a brain tumor metastasis or brain tumor metastases or a KPS of less than 60.
