<ul class="seamTextUnorderedList"> <li class="seamTextUnorderedListItem">Anastrozole (Arimidex®), letrozole (Femara®), and exemestane (Aromasin®) are types of hormone therapy called aromatase inhibitors. Aromatase inhibitors block some production of estrogen that helps cancer grow.</li> <li class="seamTextUnorderedListItem">Tamoxifen (Nolvadex®) is a type of hormone therapy called a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM). SERMs work by blocking the activity of estrogen.</li> <li class="seamTextUnorderedListItem">Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage cancer cell DNA.

Stereotactic Radiation or Memory Sparing Whole-Brain Radiation for Patients with 5-15 Brain Metastases
A Phase III Trial of Stereotactic Radiosurgery Compared With Hippocampal-Avoidant Whole Brain Radiotherapy (HA-WBRT) Plus Memantine for 5-15 Brain Metastases Scientific Title
Purpose
To compare the anti-cancer activity and side effects of stereotaxic radiation with memory-sparing, whole-brain radiation, To preserve memory, radiation will avoid the hippocampus, an area of the brain associated with memory, and be given with Memantine, a drug used to treat memory loss caused by dementia.
Who is this for?
People with metastatic (stage IV) breast cancer and 5-15 brain metastases. You must not have received prior radiation or surgery for brain metastases (mets).

To study the safety, effects (good and bad), and anti-cancer activity of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT).
Who is this for?
People with metastatic (stage IV) HER2 positive (HER2+), HER2 low, or estrogen receptor positive (ER+), HER2 negative (HER2-) breast cancer. You must have a small number of metastases (oligometastatic disease) and have received standard treatment.

This trial will study the safety of giving stereotactic radiation therapy before surgery. Stereotactic radiation therapy delivers a higher targeted dose of radiation in fewer sessions than standard radiation therapy.
Who is this for?
Woman, 50 or older, with stage I, hormone positive (ER+ and PR+), HER2 negative (HER2-) breast cancer who have not yet had surgery.
