To improve treatment outcomes for large brain metastases, two- or three-stage radiosurgery - administered with inter-fraction intervals of several weeks - has been employed as an alternative to conventional single-session gamma knife radiosurgery. In recent years, technological advancements have enabled the implementation of consecutive fractionated radiosurgery at many gamma knife centers. However, robust evidence regarding its efficacy and safety remains limited. The present study aims to retrospectively analyze a cohort of domestic cases to evaluate the validity of fractionated radiosurgery in terms of both efficacy and safety, primarily through comparison with two- or three-stage radiosurgery.

Not applicable |
Male and Female
Patients who underwent gamma knife radiosurgery for brain metastases with a tumor volume of 4 cm3 or more between January 1, 2016, and December 31, 2024, will be included
The patient has previously undergone other treatments or interventions for brain metastases, such as surgical resection, cyst drainage, or whole-brain radiotherapy.
Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) is below 70% (if neurological symptoms caused by brain metastases are present, the pre-symptom KPS is below 70%).
The number of brain metastases exceeds 10.
Contrast-enhanced MRI was not obtained for treatment planning.
There is evidence of cerebrospinal fluid dissemination.
No post-treatment contrast-enhanced MRI has been obtained, or post-treatment imaging status is unknown.
The primary tumor is classified as carcinoma of unknown origin, sarcoma, or lymphoma.

This is a multi-institutional, retrospective observational study without any intervention or invasiveness, involving patients who underwent Gamma Knife treatment for brain metastases with a tumor volume of 4 cm3 or larger between January 1, 2016, and December 31, 2024.
The primary endpoint is the local control rate of the main lesion. Secondary endpoints include overall survival, incidence of central nervous system death, lesion-specific local control, intracranial progression-free survival, functional outcomes, and the incidence of radiation necrosis or grade 3 or higher adverse events.
Anonymized clinical, treatment, and follow-up data will be collected in electronic format from each participating institution and analyzed.
