Higher radiation doses tested to stop brain tumors longer
NCT ID NCT02645487
Summary
This study is testing whether higher, more focused radiation doses can better control brain tumors that have spread from other cancers. It involves 135 adults with up to 10 small brain tumors who haven't had previous brain radiation. Researchers want to find the highest safe dose that might keep tumors controlled longer, especially as cancer patients are living longer with improved treatments.
