Stereotactic Radiation in Patients With Small Cell Lung Cancer and 1-10 Brain Metastases
Sponsor: Dana-Farber Cancer Institute
Summary
This research study is studying stereotactic radiation (focused/pinpoint radiation that targets each individual tumor but not the surrounding brain) instead of whole-brain radiation (radiation targeting the entire brain) as a possible treatment for patients with small cell lung cancer and 1-10 brain metastases. The intervention involved in this study is: -Stereotactic (focused, pinpoint) radiation
