Study Summary

The primary purpose of this study is to establish a maximum tolerated dose (MTD) through a dose-escalation trial using intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) following neurosurgical resection for large brain metastases, and to determine the progression-free survival rate as in the recurrence rate of treated brain metastasis.

Primary Outcome

Maximum tolerated dose will be determined by classical 3+3 dose-escalation design. Toxicity will be measured using the National Cancer Institute Common terminology criteria for adverse events (version 5.0). The first dose of 18Gy will be administered to the first 3 subjects, after 90 days from treatment a safety assessment for dose limiting toxicities will be done to determine if the next 3 subject will escalation to dose of 21Gy or receive 18Gy. If escalation to 21Gy is permitted, then after
