Radiation first: new approach for brain tumors shows promise

NCT ID NCT04503772

Summary

This study tested whether giving precise, high-dose radiation before surgery helps control brain metastases better. It involved 70 adults with 1-4 brain tumors from breast, lung, or digestive cancers who were eligible for both surgery and radiation. Researchers measured whether tumors stayed controlled at 6 months and monitored side effects and quality of life.
