NCT ID NCT05124236
First seen Mar 07, 2026 · Last updated Apr 28, 2026 · Updated 8 times
Summary
This study tests whether giving a single dose of radiation before surgery for brain metastases can lower the chance of cancer spreading in the brain's lining, compared to five doses after surgery. About 200 adults with brain tumors will be randomly assigned to one of the two approaches. The main goal is to see which timing better prevents leptomeningeal disease over 12 months.
