NCT02947984

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the best radiation dose for participants with meningioma that has grown back after previous surgery, or which the surgeon has been unable to remove completely. This research study is designed to determine whether a higher dose of radiation will decrease the likelihood that the tumor will grow back, compared to the probability of re-growth that occurs after standard radiation doses.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Progression Free Survival

    The number of participants surviving at the given time point. Progression free survival (PFS) is measured from the starting date of radiation therapy and analyzed by intention to treat. PFS is measured until the earlier, date of death or development of radiologic progression, and is otherwise censored at the last follow-up for progression-free patients still alive.

    5, 10, 15 years

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Acute Toxicities

    90 Days

  • Late Toxicities

    5 Years

  • Local Failure Rate

    15 Years

Study Arms (2)

Standard Treatment

EXPERIMENTAL

Standard radiation therapy: 55.8 CGE in 31 treatments of 1.8 CGE given once a day, for five days each week.

Radiation: Standard Treatment

Higher Dose Treatment

EXPERIMENTAL

63 CGE in 35 treatments of 1.8 CGE given once a day, for five days of each week.

Radiation: Higher Dose

Interventions

55.8 CGE in 31 treatments of 1.8 CGE given once a day, for five days each week. Treatment based upon a treatment planning CT.
