Lattice Radiotherapy for Adults With Large Tumors
Sponsor: Duke University
Summary
The purpose of this study is to ask whether using a specialized radiation therapy technique called Lattice Radiation Therapy (LRT) can shrink large tumors when given with palliative radiation therapy. The primary questions are: * if LRT is safe and does not worsen existing side effects or cause new side effects * if adding LRT to standard radiation therapy can improve tumor shrinkage. Participants will have one additional radiation treatment (LRT) prior to starting palliative radiation and then their progress will be followed for one year.
