Summary

Vertebral augmentation with radiotherapy to increase the functional status and quality of life for patients with vertebral body metastatic cancers.

Detailed description

The study quantifies the reduction of pain and changes in quality of life associated with vertebral augmentation. This study is conducted in patients with metastatic cancer or multiple myeloma involving the spine. This study addresses the value of vertebral augmentation in combination with radiotherapy in the setting of cancer to the spine. The patient's pain, overall quality of life, and fracture development/avoidance will be compared to patients treated only with radiotherapy in the past.

Conditions

• Metastatic Cancers
• Multiple Myeloma
• Vertebral Fracture

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	Vertebroplasty	Under imaging guidance, a fractured vertebral body is stabilized with injected bone cement.
RADIATION	Radiotherapy	Radiotherapy of metastatic lesions to the spine.
