About this trial

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

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

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

Disqualifiers

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

Trial 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.
