Study Summary

This phase II trial studies how well stereotactic radiosurgery works in treating patients with melanoma that has spread to more than 3 places in the brain. Stereotactic radiosurgery is a specialized radiation therapy that delivers a single, high dose of radiation directly to the tumor and may cause less damage to normal tissue.

Primary Outcome

Time to local failure will be estimated using the product-limit estimator of Kaplan and Meier, and log-rank test will be used for comparison of local failure rate in patients treated with stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) to null hypothesis with respect to the time to local failure. Patients who are lost to follow-up or who die from distant disease before having local failure will be censored. Local control rates at 4 months may be estimated with 95% confidence intervals using Kaplan-Meier method.
