Spine cancer treatment study
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your spine cancer has spread from another part of your body or started in your spine
- You have had surgery to relieve pressure on your spine and make it stable
- You will receive radiation therapy after your surgery
- You are 18 years or older
- You can have an MRI or CT scan for radiation planning

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.
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.
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).
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.
This study follows patients who have cancer that has spread to their spine and are having surgery to relieve paralysis. Researchers will track how well patients recover nerve function after surgery and identify factors that help or hinder recovery.
This Phase 2 study tests a precise radiation treatment (spine SBRT, also called radiosurgery) to reduce pain from cancer that has spread to the spine. It focuses on people with stable spine structure and low pain at the start, to see how well the treatment works and stays safe.
