Stereotactic Radiosurgery vs Conventional Radiotherapy for Localized Vertebral Metastases of the Spine: Phase 3 Results of NRG Oncology/RTOG 0631 Randomized Clinical Trial
CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: In this randomized clinical trial, superiority of SRS for the primary end point of patient-reported pain response at 3 months was not found, and there were no spinal cord complications at 2 years after SRS. This finding may inform further investigation of using spine radiosurgery in the setting of oligometastases, where durability of cancer control is essential.TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00922974.PMID:37079324 | DOI:10.1001/jamaoncol.2023.0356
