Stereotactic Radiosurgery in Treating Patients With Brain Metastases

Stopped early · Phase 2

Conditions studied: Metastatic Cancer, Unspecified Adult Solid Tumor, Protocol Specific

In brief

RATIONALE: Stereotactic radiosurgery may be able to send x-rays directly to the tumor and cause less damage to normal tissue. Giving stereotactic radiosurgery before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well stereotactic radiosurgery works in treating patients with brain metastases.
