About this trial
This is a Pilot clinical trial determining the safety of an active surveillance approach to local therapy in subjects with brain metastases. These are subjects who are undergoing CNS-penetrating systemic therapy.

This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Patients must have histologically or cytologically confirmed metastatic non-hematologic malignancy.
Patients must have at least one new or progressive brain metastasis that has not received prior local therapy (surgery or radiation therapy).
Patients must have no active brain metastasis >3cm in size.
Leptomeningeal disease is permitted
Disqualifiers
Patients who have only progressive growth of brain lesions that have previously been treated with surgery or radiation therapy.
Patients with active symptomatic brain metastases.
Patients requiring corticosteroids, anticonvulsants, or other palliative medications related to brain metastases.
