Summary

This trial is looking at whether intensive multi-disciplinary care for patients with brain metastases is better than standard care at improving patient-reported symptoms and their awareness of their prognosis.

Who is the study for?
This clinical trial is for patients with brain metastases, which are cancerous tumors that have spread to the brain. Participants should be those who require a new approach to care and are currently receiving standard treatment.
What is being tested?
The study is testing whether an intensive multi-disciplinary care approach can improve patient-reported symptoms and awareness of their prognosis compared to standard care in individuals with brain metastases.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this is a health services intervention, it does not involve drugs or medical procedures, so traditional side effects are not expected. However, changes in care may affect emotional well-being or stress levels.
