Single Fraction or Multi-fraction Palliative Radiation Therapy for the Improvement of Quality of Life in Patients With Metastatic Gynecologic Cancers
Sponsor: M.D. Anderson Cancer Center
Summary
This phase II trial studies if a single session of palliative radiation therapy can help improve symptoms of gynecologic cancers that have spread to other places in the body (metastatic) and that affect quality of life as well or more so than multiple sessions (which is the standard of care). Palliative radiation therapy may help patients with metastatic gynecologic cancers live more comfortably. Researchers also want to learn how radiation affects the immune system and to compare the effects of giving one radiation treatment to giving multiple radiation treatments.
