Screws plus cement to treat bone metastases
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial looks at a treatment that uses metal screws along with cement to stabilize and treat weakening spots in bones caused by metastases. It’s meant for people who have already received this type of procedure and want to be included in the study.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been treated with a procedure for lytic bone metastases that involves both screws and cement
- Your doctors have already done osteosynthesis (stabilizing the bone with hardware) and cementoplasty (placing cement in the bone)
- You are willing to participate in the study
- You do not refuse participation

This trial reviews a procedure that uses bone cement to treat a lesion in the pelvis, sometimes with added screw support. It aims to understand outcomes for patients having cement treatment, with or without screws.
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.
This study looks at whether treating certain spine tumors with a cement procedure (vertebroplasty) plus focused radiation can control the cancer and improve quality of life. It is for adults with spine metastases that are not clearly defined and meet specific stability and imaging needs.
This trial tests a new type of bone cement mixed with ultrasound to help treat cancer that has spread to the pelvis and is causing severe pain. The goal is to see if this approach safely reduces pain and improves quality of life in patients with advanced cancer.
This trial looks at outcomes after surgery to stabilize a broken bone caused by cancer that has spread (metastatic cancer). It may help by improving how doctors plan and measure results after specific types of bone stabilization surgery.
This trial collects and follows information about people who had surgery to treat cancer that spread to their long bones (like the femur or humerus) to prevent or fix a broken bone. It may help doctors better understand outcomes after these surgeries and improve future care.
