What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. The maximum tolerated dose of vorinostat with concurrent radiosurgery will be determined.

    Time frame: 30 days following Stereotactic Radiosurgery

  2. During the expanded phase I portion of the study, the safety of the Maximum tolerated dose dose will be confirmed.

    Time frame: 30 days following Stereotactic Radiosurgery

  3. The radiologic response, defined as local control and distant intra-cranial control rates at 3-months following radiotherapy, will be determined.

    Time frame: 3 months following Stereotactic Radiosurgery

Secondary outcomes

  1. The short-term (< 30 days post-treatment) and long-term (> 30 days post-treatment) adverse effects will be determined.

    Time frame: 12 months

  2. The 12-month survival rate from the date of Stereotactic Radiosurgery will be determined.

    Time frame: 12 months
