Comparison Groups\n\nResearchers will compare three arms to evaluate their impact on cognition and disease control:\n\n* Arm A (SRS): Focal high-dose radiation (15-20 Gy in 1 fraction) to intracranial lesions.\n* Arm B (CS-WBRT): Whole-brain radiation (30 Gy in 10 fractions) sparing the left hippocampus and corpus callosum plus Memantine.\n* Arm C (HA-WBRT): Whole-brain radiation (30 Gy in 10 fractions) with bilateral hippocampal avoidance plus Memantine.\n\nParticipant Tasks\n\nParticipants will:\n\n* Complete neurocognitive and neuropsychological tests (HVLT-R, TMT, COWAT, CANTAB) at baseline and follow-up.\n* Undergo contrast-enhanced brain MRI for planning and tracking tumor progression.\n* Take Memantine HCL daily for 24 weeks if assigned to the WBRT arms (B or C).\n* Provide blood samples for biomarker and genetic analysis (e.g., APOE, Tau).\n* Undergo olfactory function testing and complete quality-of-life questionnaires.",[59],"Brain Metastases From Solid Tumors",[61,62,63,64],"Brain metastases","Cognitive Preservation","Hippocampal Avoidance Whole Brain Radiotherapy","Stereotactic Radiosurgery","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-04-06",{"date":68,"type":69},"2026-04-13","ACTUAL",{"date":71,"type":53},"2026-04",{"date":73,"type":53},"2031-04",{"name":5,"class":6}]
