Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Patients with a histologic diagnosis of non-hematopoietic malignancy
  • Radiographic evidence of bone metastases
  • Patient with pain or dysathesia on a pain score of at least 2 by brief pain inventory survey
  • Multiple osseous sites are eligible with a maximum of three separate sites irradiated concurrently
  • Patients do not have prior radiotherapy or radiosurgery to the index site(s)
  • Age ≥ 20 years
  • Karnofsky performance status (KPS) ≥ 50%.
  • Life expectancy of ≥ 3 months
  • Women of childbearing potential and male participants must practice adequate contraception
  • Patients must be able to comply with the study protocol, pain assessment, quality of life survey, and follow-up schedules and provide study-specific informed consent

Exclusion

  • Patients with radiographic impending or pathological fracture, or malignant epidural cord compression at the index site(s) indicative of upfront surgery
  • Prior radiotherapy or radiosurgery to the index site(s)
  • Previously treated with radioactive isotope (e.g. Ra-223) within 30 days of registration
  • Inability to cooperate treatment procedure
  • Severe, active comorbidities which, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study or interfere significantly with the proper assessment of safety and adverse events of the protocol, or limit compliance with study requirements, defined as follows:
  • Uncontrolled active infection requiring intravenous antibiotics at the time of registration
  • Transmural myocardial infarction ≤ 6 months prior to registration
  • Unstable angina or congestive heart failure requiring hospitalization ≤ 6 months prior to registration
  • Life-threatening uncontrolled clinically significant cardiac arrhythmias
  • Hepatic insufficiency resulting in clinical jaundice and/or coagulation defects
  • Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbation or other respiratory illness requiring hospitalization or precluding study therapy at the time of registration
  • Uncontrolled psychiatric disorder
  • Will receive any other investigational agent or chemotherapy during treatment
  • Women of childbearing potential and male participants who are sexually active and not willing/able to use medically acceptable forms of contraception; this exclusion is necessary because the radiation treatment involved in this study may be significantly teratogenic
  • Pregnant or breast-feeding women
