Symptom severity, interference with daily functioning were improved ...
The combination of stereotactic RT or radiosurgery with immunotherapy or targeted therapy shows manageable toxicity and improved local control and clinical benefit in patients with brain metastases.
Investigators sought to determine whether stereotactic radiation improves symptom severity and interference with daily functioning compared with whole-brain radiation with hippocampal avoidance.
In a Phase III randomized trial, Mass General Brigham researchers found that stereotactic radiation targeting individual tumors led to lower symptom burden, better cognitive outcomes, and better ...
