New approach aims to strengthen weakened spine bones in cancer patients
NCT ID NCT07090122
Summary
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 reduces serious bone problems like fractures, pain, or the need for more surgery over two years. Researchers will compare the two approaches in 36 patients with spine metastases to see which one better prevents these complications.
