Recruiting studies
- NCT05495399Recruiting
Radiation after limited spine surgery for spine metastases
This study tests whether radiation given after limited surgery helps control cancer that has spread to a small area of the spine. It may help reduce tumor growth in the treated spine area and improve local control after operation.
TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT04218617RecruitingPhase 2
One vs two radiation treatments for spine metastases
This trial tests whether giving radiation to a spine metastasis in one dose works as well as giving it in two smaller doses. It aims to control tumors while keeping side effects and risk to the spinal cord low.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04115254Recruiting
MRI-guided focused radiation for certain tumors
This study tests a type of high-precision radiation guided by MRI pictures to treat certain cancers. It may help doctors deliver radiation more accurately while avoiding nearby healthy tissue, but you must be able to safely complete an MRI scan and meet tumor-size and health requirements.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06165419RecruitingPhase 2
High-dose radiation for spine metastases from solid tumors
This trial tests a new way of giving high-dose radiation to solid tumors that have spread to the spine. It is for people whose spine is stable, have not had prior treatment to that area, and have only minor weakness (if any).
Stony Brook, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06078813RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Higher dose spine radiation for limited spread cancers
This trial tests a higher dose of focused radiation (SABR) for people whose solid cancer has spread to the spine in a few spots. The goal is to control those tumors with fewer side effects.
CorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07225491Recruiting
Spine cancer treatment study
This study collects information about people with spine cancer who have surgery to relieve pressure on the spine, followed by radiation therapy. The goal is to learn more about how well these treatments work together.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 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+ - 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+ - 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+ - NCT05406063Recruiting
Focused radiation for bone metastases causing pain
This trial studies a precise type of radiation given in multiple small sessions to treat bone metastases that are causing pain. It may help shrink or control the spots in the bone while aiming to reduce side effects by targeting the area closely.
Winterthur, Canton of ZurichAges 18 years+ - NCT05419518RecruitingPhase 2
Higher-dose radiation to ease pain from metastatic tumors
This Phase 2 study tests whether a stronger (higher-dose) radiation plan can better reduce pain from tumors that have spread to bone or other areas. It’s meant to help people live more comfortably by targeting painful spots while avoiding certain high-risk situations.
Hamilton, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06716294Recruiting
Radiofrequency ablation and stabilization for spine tumors
This trial tests a treatment that uses heat to destroy active spine tumors from cancer that has spread, followed by stabilizing the bone. It aims to see if the treatment works by using a special scan (PET-CT) to confirm the results.
Athens, AthensAges 18–90 - NCT05317026Recruiting
Test adding cement injection to SBRT for spine pain
This study tests whether adding a vertebroplasty procedure (a cement injection to stabilize a spine bone) to standard SBRT radiation can reduce pain from spinal metastases. It may help people with painful, possibly unstable spine lesions by improving early pain relief.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - 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+ - 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+ - NCT07090122Recruiting
Spinal tumor treatment: ablation plus radiation vs radiation alone
This study compares two treatments for cancer that has spread to the spine. One group receives radiofrequency ablation (a heat-based treatment to destroy tumor cells) plus bone strengthening, followed by radiation. The other group receives radiation alone. The goal is to see which approach better controls pain and prevents spine problems.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06391242RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing radiation treatments for painful bone metastases
This trial compares two types of radiation therapy—standard palliative radiation and a more targeted high-dose treatment (SBRT)—to see which better relieves pain from bone metastases that have spread outside the spine. It is for people with solid tumors who have a painful bone spot and are expected to live at least 6 months.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT05746325Recruiting
Tumor-pulse device for spinal cancer fluid spread
This trial tests whether Tumor Treating Fields (a non-surgical device that delivers treatment signals to cancer cells through the scalp/skin) can help people whose breast or lung cancer has spread into the fluid around the spine and brain. It focuses on people who have cancer cells found in spinal fluid and can safely use the device most of the day.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for spine metastases?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 18 recruiting spine 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 spine 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 spine 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.
