Recruiting studies
- NCT05589701Recruiting
Compare two radiation plans for painful spinal cancer spread
This study compares two different radiation approaches—SBRT and CRT—for people with painful cancer that has spread to the spine. It may help determine which plan controls pain and tumor growth while limiting side effects to nearby organs.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18–100 - NCT05575323Recruiting
Same-day radiation and stabilization for spine metastases
This trial tests whether giving focused radiation (SBRT) on the same day as spine surgery to stabilize the spine helps control symptoms from spinal metastases. It may help reduce pain and improve stability, especially when tumors threaten or affect the spine’s strength.
UtrechtAges 18 years+ - NCT07135817Recruiting
Pre-surgery radiation for spinal tumors
This trial tests whether giving focused radiation before surgery can improve treatment for spinal tumors that have spread from other cancers. It may help people who need surgery for a spinal tumor and have a life expectancy of more than 6 months.
GöttingenAges 18 years+ - NCT06173401RecruitingPhase 3
Single vs. multiple radiation sessions for spine tumors
This trial is testing whether a single radiation treatment to spine tumors works as well as multiple smaller treatments. It may be an option if you have cancer that has spread to up to 3 spots in your spine.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07429422Recruiting
Precise Radiation for Spine Tumors
This trial is testing a very precise radiation technique called SBRT for tumors that have spread to the spine. It aims to see if this approach can treat the tumor effectively while reducing side effects.
LjubljanaAges 18 years+ - NCT04863612Recruiting
SBRT for spinal tumors with possible spinal cord pressure
This study looks at treating spinal metastases (spread to the spine from a solid cancer) using SBRT, a focused type of radiation. It aims to control tumor growth and relieve or prevent spinal cord compression, sometimes alongside surgery.
Leuven, Vlaams BrabantAges 18–99 - NCT06120426Recruiting
Surgery types and radiation for spinal tumors that have spread
This study compares two types of spinal surgery combined with radiation for people whose cancer has spread to the spine in a limited way (no more than 5 spots). It aims to find which approach better controls pain, tumor growth, and spinal stability.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06042946Recruiting
Surgery for spinal cord tumors that spread from other cancers
This trial is for adults who have a specific type of spinal cord tumor that has spread from another cancer. It looks at how well a surgery called microsurgical resection works to remove the tumor and what happens to patients before and after the procedure.
Sankt GallenAges 18 years+ - NCT05023772Recruiting
Laser and targeted radiation for spine metastases
This trial tests a combination treatment that uses a laser and focused radiation to shrink tumors in the spine and help stabilize the area near the spinal cord. It’s meant for adults with certain types of solid cancers that have limited spread in the spine and who are not good candidates for surgery.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT06613295Recruiting
Spine cancer trial: Surgery plus radiation vs radiation alone
This trial compares two treatments for cancer that has spread to the spine: surgery followed by precise radiation versus radiation alone. It aims to see if adding surgery improves pain, movement, and quality of life.
AalstAges 18 years+ - NCT06244264Recruiting
Using your own blood during spine surgery for lung cancer
This study tests the safety and effectiveness of using your own blood (collected before surgery) during spine surgery for lung cancer that has spread to the backbone. It may help people whose spine is unstable or causing nerve problems.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT04242589RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation plus bone cement for painful spinal metastasis pain
This trial tests adding a bone-cement procedure (vertebroplasty) along with radiation to reduce pain from cancer that has spread to the spine. It is for adults with painful metastatic (spread) tumors in the middle or lower spine, without current spinal cord pressure.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT07538024Recruiting
Reduced-dose radiation for spine cancer spread
This trial tests whether lower radiation doses work well for treating cancer that has spread to the spine. If you have a few spine tumors that are stable or causing symptoms, this study might help doctors find safer, faster treatment options.
Negrar, VeronaAges 18 years+ - NCT07171996Recruiting
Radioactive seed therapy for spinal tumors
This trial tests a procedure where tiny radioactive seeds are placed into spinal tumors to relieve pain and control growth. It is for people with cancer that has spread to the bone and who are able to undergo the procedure safely.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–55 - NCT07478289RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation boost for painful spinal metastases
This trial tests a higher dose of radiation (a boost) to painful spots in the spine where cancer has spread. The goal is to see if it can better relieve pain and improve function.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT03392233RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted radiation for spinal metastases causing significant pain
This trial tests a focused form of radiation (stereotactic body radiation) to treat cancer spread to the spine, especially when it causes substantial pain. It may help shrink or control the spinal spots while limiting damage to surrounding tissues.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–85 - NCT05534321RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Preventive radiation for high-risk spinal bone metastases
This trial tests whether preventive (before serious problems happen) radiation to the spine can help people with high-risk, mostly symptom-free bone metastases. It may reduce the chance of pain escalation or dangerous complications from cancer in the spine.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04802603Recruiting
Focused spine radiation for limited spread to the spine
This trial tests a stronger, carefully measured form of radiation aimed at a small number of spots where cancer has spread to the spine. It may help control pain and tumor growth while protecting the spinal cord.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for spinal metastases?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 18 recruiting spinal metastases studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a spinal metastases trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a spinal metastases trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
