Study Summary

This is a randomized study to determine if not treating planning target volume (PTV) margins during radiation therapy worsens progression free survival rates in patients with brain metastases.

Primary Outcome

Progression free survival (PFS) rates will be estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method and the 0-mm and 2-mm groups will be compared via the log-rank statistic with a one-sided test of significance, using follow-up data up to 6 months.
