Gene Therapy Clinical Trials
Study of Fractionated Stereotactic Radiosurgery to Treat Large Brain Metastases
The maximum tolerated dose of 3-session (ie, treatment) stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) to treat brain metastases greater than 4.2 cm³ in size will be determined.
This study investigates if increasing radiation dose improves outcome for patients without greater toxicity (side effects).
Stanford is currently not accepting patients for this trial.
