Study Summary

This phase II trial studies the neurological function in patients with multiple brain metastases undergoing stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) or stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). Stereotactic body radiation therapy uses special equipment to position a patient and deliver radiation to tumors with high precision. This method can kill tumor cells with fewer doses over a shorter period and cause less damage to normal tissue. Assessment of neurocognitive function may help show that SRS preserves neurological function in patients with multiple brain metastases better than SBRT.

Primary Outcome

The proportion of patients with neurocognitive decline at 4 months post stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) treatment in each group will be estimated using the sample proportion with the corresponding two-sided 95% confidence interval. The determination of neurocognitive decline will be based on a battery of tests: Hopkins Verbal Learning Test-Revised (HVLT-R) for Total Recall, Delayed Recall, and Delayed Recognition, Controlled Oral Word Association (COWA), and the Trail Making Test (TMT) Parts A a
