  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Age between 18 and 80 years (inclusive), regardless of gender.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status ≤ 2.
  • Diagnosis of brain metastasis confirmed by histopathological examination and/or imaging, and deemed suitable for stereotactic radiotherapy according to the investigator's judgment.
  • Tumor diameter of brain metastasis ≤ 4 cm, with ≤ 10 metastatic lesions.
  • At least one measurable tumor lesion as defined by the RECIST 1.1 criteria for assessment of treatment efficacy.
  • Ability to understand the study objectives, voluntarily consent to participate, and sign a written informed consent; willingness to undergo all necessary examinations and follow-up assessments.

Who cannot join

  • Expected survival time < 6 months.
  • Patients requiring surgical treatment or other local therapies for the target lesions during radiotherapy.
  • Patients who have received other local treatments (including radiofrequency ablation, cryoablation, particle therapy, etc.) within 30 days prior to screening, or those who have received systemic therapy (chemotherapy, endocrine therapy, immunotherapy) within 14 days or less than five half-lives of a drug prior to screening (whichever is longer).
  • Patients who have previously received radiotherapy at the same site or for the same lesion.
  • Patients with extensive metastasis, severe cachexia, or clear signs of malignant cachexia.
  • Patients deemed by the investigator to be unable to tolerate radiotherapy.

  • Patients with psychiatric disorders or who are unable to accurately describe their condition or cooperate with required examinations.
  • Patients with systemic active infections or infections of the pericardium or lungs.
  • Patients with severe liver or renal dysfunction, or those with significant concurrent diseases in other systems.
  • Patients with septic hemorrhagic shock.
  • Patients with esophageal cancer at risk for deep ulceration or perforation, or those with large pleural effusion in lung cancer or significant ascites in abdominal tumors.
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women, or women planning to become pregnant during the study period or unwilling to take appropriate contraceptive measures (acceptable methods include hormonal therapies (oral, implant, etc.), intrauterine devices, barrier methods (spermicide + condom), spermicide + diaphragm/cervical cap, abstinence, etc.).

About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Multi-center, Single-Arm Study on the Efficacy of the RayerKnife X Stereotactic Radiotherapy System in the Treatment of Brain Metastases

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of stereotactic radiotherapy in the treatment of brain metastases. The main question it aims to answer is: Did stereotactic radiotherapy improve LC rate in the treatment of brain metastases? Participants will be recorded for local control rates during follow-up.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing X-ray stereotactic radiotherapy for brain metastasis in people with Brain Metastasis and SRS, run by Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital.

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 6 inclusion and 15 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Feb 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

LC rate (time frame: 3 months). 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 28 Feb 2025.
