Recruit Status: Active, not recruiting
Study Type: Interventional




Official Title: Dose-intensified Image-Guided Fractionated Radiosurgery for Spinal Metastases (DOSIS)

Brief Summary: It is the study hypothesis that hypo-fractionated image-guided radiosurgery significantly improves pain relief compared to historic data of conventionally fractionated radiotherapy. Primary endpoint is pain response 3 months after radiosurgery, which is defined as pain reduction of ≥2 points at the treated vertebral site on the 0 to 10 Visual Analogue Scale. 60 patients will be included into this II trial.
