SPINE METASTASES

This study is testing a new radiation therapy approach that uses MRI scans during treatment to adjust radiation beams in real time. Researchers want to see if this method can better target tumors while sparing healthy tissue in patients with various cancers including pancreatic, …

This study is testing whether adding two procedures—radiofrequency ablation (heat treatment) and bone cement injection—to standard radiation therapy works better than radiation alone for people with cancer that has spread to the spine. The goal is to see if the combined treatment…

This study is testing whether giving radiation therapy early to patients with cancer that has spread to the spine—but who have few or no symptoms—can prevent serious complications like fractures or spinal cord compression. Researchers want to see if this proactive approach reduce…

This study is testing a different way to deliver radiation to cancer that has spread to the spine. Instead of giving one or two high-dose treatments, doctors are spreading the same total radiation dose over five smaller treatments. The goal is to see if this gentler approach is e…

This study is collecting information to understand how well patients with spine tumors do after receiving a specific treatment combination: surgery to relieve pressure followed by radiation therapy. Researchers will follow 3,000 adults to see how long they live, if the cancer in …
