Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy vs Conventional Palliative Radiotherapy for Painful Non-Spine Bone Metastases
Sponsor: Canadian Cancer Trials Group
Summary
This study is being done to answer the following question: Is Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy or SBRT (a form of radiation therapy which can deliver high doses of radiation to the specific painful area of the body most affected by cancer, while keeping the radiation beams away from the healthy parts of the body that surround the cancer) better for pain relief than the standard treatment of conventional radiation therapy or CRT (a form of radiation therapy which delivers radiation to the painful area but can also negatively affect other parts of the body in the same area)
Official title: A Randomized Phase III Trial Comparing Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy to Conventional Palliative Radiotherapy (SBRT) Versus Conventional Palliative Radiotherapy (CRT) for Participants With Painful Non-Spine Bone Metastases
