NCT ID NCT07090122

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 26 times

Summary

This study compares a procedure that uses heat to destroy tumor tissue and strengthen bone (radiofrequency ablation and bone augmentation) plus standard radiation therapy versus radiation alone in people with cancer that has spread to the spine. The goal is to see if the combined approach reduces serious spine problems like fractures, nerve compression, or the need for more procedures. About 36 adults with spine metastases will be followed for up to two years.
