Not Applicable
Terminated
Conditions
Vertebral Metastasis
Interventions
Radiation: Stereotactic Radiation Therapy
Radiation: SRT with Vertebral Augmentation Procedure
Registration Number
NCT01527292

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine pain control rate (Percentage of patients in each arm that achieve pain control) at the treated site(s) at 1 month, 2-4 months and 5-6 months post-treatment.

Detailed Description

Eligible Vertebral Metastatic Lesion/s-\> randomized-\> SRT versus SRT+ VAP Stereotactic Radiation Therapy(SRT): 16 Gy X 1 Evaluation: prior to treatment; 1 month, 2-4 months, 5-6 months and 1 year post-treatment

Inclusion Criteria
  1. Age ≥ 18 years.
  2. ECOG performance status 0-1.
  3. Known histologically proven malignancy.
  4. Localized osteolytic spine metastases from T7 to L5 demonstrated by MRI, CT, PET or bone scan: a solitary spine metastasis; two separate spine levels; or up to 3 separate sites (each site may have a maximal involvement of 2 contiguous vertebral bodies with or without a paraspinal mass of no more than 5 cm).
  5. Negative serum pregnancy test within 2 weeks prior to registration for women of childbearing potential.
  6. Women of childbearing potential and male participants who are sexually active must agree to use a medically effective means of birth control.
  7. Numerical Rating Pain Scale (NRPS) and movement-related pain score(MRPS) within two (2) weeks prior to registration.
  8. The patient must have a score of ≥ 5 for at least one of the planned sites for SRT.
  9. Patients must provide study specific informed consent prior to study entry.
  10. Required Pre-treatment Evaluations: baseline Numerical Rating Pain Scale (NRPS), movement-related pain score, dose and frequency of all pain medications; QOL Measure using the Oswestry Disability Questionnaire, and EuroQOL(EQ-5D).
Exclusion Criteria
  1. Non-ambulatory patients.
  2. Frank spinal cord compression or epidural compression within 3 mm of the spinal cord.
  3. Osteoblastic vertebral metastasis.
  4. Prior radiation to the index spine.
  5. Patients with rapid neurologic decline.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Numerical Rating Pain Scale (NRPS) Change in PatientsFor 6 months post treatment

To determine pain control rate (Percentage of patients in each arm that achieve pain control) at the treated site(s)at 1 month, 2-4 months and 5-6 months post-treatment and to validate of the movement-related pain score

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Vertebra MeasurementFor 1 year post treatment

To measure the dimensions of the treated vertebra(e) at 1 year

Reduction of Pain EstimateFor 1 year post treatment

To estimate the relative quantitative reduction of pain from baseline in patients in each arm.

Feasibility Rate EstimationFor 1 year post treatment

To estimate the feasibility rate of the study procedure (the percentage of patients in overall and each arm that complete the treatment).

Toxicity Rate EstimationFor 1 year post treatment

To estimate the toxicities of the treatment

Quality of Life EstimateFor 1 year post treatment

To estimate the quality of life using the Oswestry Disability Questionnaire
