Brief Summary: RATIONALE Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells It is not yet known which radiation therapy regimen is more effective for bone metastases

PURPOSE Randomized phase III trial to compare different radiation therapy regimens in treating patients who have bone metastases from breast or prostate cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Compare the ability of a single fraction of radiation therapy vs multiple fractions to provide complete pain relief in patients with painful bone metastases from breast or prostate cancer
Determine the frequency and duration of pain relief and narcotic relief after these treatments in these patient populations
Compare the effect on quality of life of these two treatments in these patient populations
Compare the incidence of pathologic fracture within the treatment fields after these two treatments in these patient populations

OUTLINE This is a randomized study

Patients are assigned to 1 of 2 treatment arms Arm I consists of radiation therapy delivered in 10 fractions over 2 weeks Arm II consists of a single dose of radiation therapy Any retreatment does not occur until at least 4 weeks after prior treatment unless there is an increase of 2 points on the pain score

Patients are followed and quality of life is assessed at 2 and 4 weeks then at 2 3 6 9 and 12 months every 6 months for the next 3 years then annually until death

PROJECTED ACCRUAL This study will accrue 938 patients within 2 years
