External Beam Radiotherapy for Painful Bone Metastases from Hepatocellular Carcinoma: Multiple Fractions Compared with an 8-gy Single Fraction

External beam radiotherapy (EBRT) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) bone metastases has not been popular in palliative therapy, and optimum dose schedules have not been decided because of limited published reports. We here evaluated the palliative effect of EBRT for HCC bone metastases and compared the dose-response relationship between multiple fractions (MFs) and an 8-Gy single fraction (SF)...

Randomized clinical trial with two palliative radiotherapy regimens in painful bone metastases: 30 Gy in 10 fractions compared with 8 Gy in single fraction.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The aim was to demonstrate similar pain relief with two schedules of radiotherapy for painful bone metastases. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 160 patients were assigned to receive a single 8-Gy fraction or 30 Gy in 10 fractions. Pain intensity was measured on an ordinal pain scale of 0-10. Partial response was defined as a pain reduction of two points or more and comp...

Efficacy of 8 Gy Single Fraction Palliative Radiation Therapy in Painful Bone Metastases: A Single Institution Experience

Introduction Bone metastasis (BM) is a major complication of many solid tumors like breast, prostate, lung and renal cancers. BM leads to serious sequelae of pain, fractures, spinal cord compression and hypercalcemia. Radiotherapy has an established role in relieving pain caused by BM.

The aim of our prospective study was to evaluate the impact of one fraction of 8 Gy regimen in palliative treatment of MM. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty-six patients with MM and painful bone destructions were treated by 8 Gy single fraction regimen. The visual analog scale ...
