Brief Summary: RATIONALE Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells Radiosurgery may be able to deliver x-rays directly to the tumor and cause less damage to normal tissue It is not yet known if radiosurgery is more effective with or without whole-brain radiation therapy in treating brain metastases

PURPOSE Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of radiosurgery with or without whole-brain radiation therapy in treating patients who have brain metastases
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Compare the overall survival of patients with 1 to 3 cerebral metastases treated with radiosurgery with or without whole brain radiotherapy
Compare the time to CNS failure brain in patients treated with these regimens
Compare the quality of life duration of functional independence and long-term neurocognitive status in patients treated with these regimens
Compare the post-treatment toxic effects of these regimens in these patients

OUTLINE This is a randomized multicenter study Patients are stratified according to age 60 and over vs under 60 extracranial disease controlled for more than 3 months vs controlled for 3 months or less and number of brain metastases 1 vs more than 1 Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms

Arm I Patients undergo radiosurgery
Arm II Patients undergo radiosurgery Within 14 days patients then undergo whole brain radiotherapy 5 days a week for 25 weeks

Quality of life is assessed at baseline the beginning of each treatment at week 6 every 3 months for 1 year every 4 months for 1 year and then every 6 months for 2 years

Patients are followed at weeks 6 and 12 every 3 months for 9 months every 4 months for 1 year every 6 months for 2 years and then annually thereafter

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 480 patients 240 per treatment arm will be accrued for this study within 5 years
