Brief Summary: This study will evaluate the rate of radiation necrosis following treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) treatment and radiation therapy in subjects with metastatic brain cancer. Subjects will be treated with the standard of care immunotherapy followed by radiation therapy via stereotactic radiosurgery at a reduced dose.
Detailed Description: This is a prospective, single arm, pilot study to determine the symptomatic radiation necrosis rate at 6 months utilizing dose-reduced stereotactic radiosurgery with immunotherapy for subjects with a diagnosis of 1-10 brain metastases from MRI and tissue diagnosis of primary malignancy. Primary end-point is 6 month symptomatic radiation necrosis, defined as a 6-month rate of clinical symptomatology requiring steroid administration (i.e. Decadron) and/or operative intervention concomitant with advanced and routine brain imaging findings consistent with radiation necrosis. Follow-up MRIs will be fused with the planning scan for this assessment.
