Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Adult patients with an established diagnosis on dedicated brain magnetic resonance (MRI) of 4-10 brain metastases (BM) of any solid tumor with an estimated life expectancy of >3 months or a disease specific grade prognostic index (DS-GPA) of ≥ 1.5.

Who may be able to join

  • Male or female, ≥ 18 years of age
  • Minimal 4 and up to a maximum of 10 synchronous BM diagnosed on a high resolution contrast-enhanced MRI scan (T1 gadolinium) not dated more than 4 weeks prior to inclusion.
  • Maximal lesion diameter of single gross tumor volume (GTV) of 3 cm
  • Maximal cumulative GTV (+CTV for cavity) of 30cm3
  • Karnofsky performance status ≥ 70
  • DS-GPA or expected overall survival (if no DS-GPA applicable) of ≥ 1.5 or >3 months respectively.
  • Any solid primary tumour. Lymphoma, germ cell tumor, small cell lung carcinoma and multiple myeloma are excluded.
  • Ability to provide written informed consent and to participate in the procedure of the questionnaires.

Who cannot join

  • BM not amenable to SRT
  • Previous SRT or surgery on the same lesion
  • Co-morbidities considered clinically precluding the safe use of an MRI examination or SRT
  • Any psychological, sociological or geographical issue potentially hampering compliance with the study
  • Pregnancy
  • Concurrent use of systemic therapy
Show all 10Show fewer
  • More than 10 BM on planning-MRI
  • Maximum cumulative GTV (+CTV for cavity) of more than 30cm3 on planning-MRI
  • A brainstem metastasis with a PTV of more than 20 cm3
  • Leptomeningeal disease

About this study

To observe the quality of life (QOL) and to report on toxicity and outcome parameters after the (repeated) use of local ablative therapy (LAT) i.e. stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) for patients with multiple (4-10) brain metastases

Read the detailed description

Phase IV prospective non-randomized observational trial (registry trial) for patients with a DS-GPA > 1.5 or an estimated life expectancy of >3 months and an established diagnosis on dedicated brain MRI of 4-10 BM of any solid primary tumor.

We plan to deliver a local ablative therapy (LAT) i.e. SRT in 1 to 5 fractions on visible BM and post-surgical cavities if applicable.

Our primary aim is to provide quality of life (QOL) data and our secondary aim is to report on several toxicity and outcome parameters for this patient cohort.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Quality of life

    Measured by the EQ-5D-5L questionnaire

    Measured: From baseline to 3 month after radiotherapy

  2. Quality of life

    Measured by the QLQ-BN20 questionnaire

    Measured: From baseline to 3 month after radiotherapy

  3. Quality of life

    Measured by the PRO-CTCAE

    Measured: From baseline to 3 month after radiotherapy

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Quality of life

    Measured by the EQ-5D-5L questionnaire

    Measured: From baseline to 1,6,9 and 12 month (+q3month) after radiotherapy

  2. Quality of life

    Measured by the QLQ-BN20 questionnaire

    Measured: From baseline to 1,6,9 and 12 month (+q3month) after radiotherapy

  3. Quality of life

    Measured by the PRO-CTCAE

    Measured: From baseline to 1,6,9 and 12 month (+q3month) after radiotherapy

  4. Local control

    Local control of the irradiated metastases

    Measured: Time from SRT until local progression or death whichever comes first, up to 3 years after LAT

  5. Survival

    Brain metastasis free survival

    Measured: Time from SRT until the occurrence of new brain metastases or death whichever comes first, up to 3 years after LAT

  6. Survival

    Overall survival

    Measured: Time from SRT until death from any cause

  7. Radiotherapy induced toxicity

    Acute toxicity

    Measured: From baseline to ≤ 90 days after radiotherapy

  8. Radiotherapy induced toxicity

    Late toxicity

    Measured: From > 90 days after radiotherapy through study completion

  9. Radiotherapy induced toxicity

    Occurrence of radionecrosis

    Measured: Change in toxicity measured from baseline up to 3 years after radiotherapy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Brain Metastases, Adult, run by Universitaire Ziekenhuizen KU Leuven at 1 site in Belgium.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Jul 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Belgium. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Patrick Berkovic, MD (+32-16-34-76-00, Patrick.berkovic@uzleuven.be), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Quality of life (time frame: From baseline to 3 month after radiotherapy). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Jul 2024.
