New hope for brain damage after cancer radiation

NCT ID NCT06888817

Summary

This study aims to find the best first treatment for brain swelling (radiation necrosis) that can occur after radiation therapy for brain tumors or metastases. It will compare a drug called bevacizumab, given by IV every three weeks, against the standard steroid pills (dexamethasone) over 12 weeks. The goal is to see which treatment better improves patients' daily function and quality of life while reducing the need for steroids.
