NCT ID NCT05222620
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether giving radiation in one session or several sessions works better for people whose cancer has spread to the brain. About 90 adults with brain tumors between 2 and 4 cm will be randomly assigned to one of two radiation approaches. The goal is to see which method better controls the tumor and causes fewer side effects like brain tissue damage.
