Study summary

Historically, the management of schwannomas has relied primarily on observation, surgery, or conventional radiotherapy techniques. However, while surgery is curative, it carries significant risks-including postoperative complications, neurological deficits, and substantial morbidity-particularly for intracranial schwannomas located near critical neurovascular structures.

Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) or stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) has emerged as a less invasive alternative, offering remarkable precision in targeting tumor tissue while sparing adjacent healthy structures. This technique employs high doses of radiation focused precisely on the tumor, thereby controlling tumor growth with minimal morbidity. Several studies have demonstrated that SRS is particularly effective for small- to medium-sized schwannomas, yielding high tumor control rates (exceeding 90% at 5 years) while preserving neurological function. Despite this, the natural history, clinical data, and post-treatment outcomes associated with schwannomas remain incompletely understood or not fully elucidated in scientific literature.

Read the detailed description

Schwannomas are benign tumors arising from Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system; the most common type is the vestibular schwannoma (also known as an acoustic neuroma). Although these tumors are non-malignant, their location-particularly on cranial or spinal nerves-can lead to serious complications such as hearing loss, balance disorders, and neurological dysfunction. Treatment aims to prevent tumor growth and preserve neurological function.

The natural history, clinical data, and post-treatment outcomes of schwannomas remain incomplete or not fully elucidated.

Real-world data enables a better understanding of diseases, the optimization of care pathways, and the acceleration of the development of new treatments or personalized diagnostics.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Efficacy data on stereotactic radiotherapy for the treatment of schwannomas

    MRI data (comparison of initial schwannoma volume with follow-up volume)

    Time frame: 6 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. Side effects associated with stereotactic radiotherapy treatment

    Adverse events (measured by CTCAE v5.0 criteria - Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events)

    Time frame: 6 months

  2. Survival

    6-month post-treatment survival rate

    Time frame: 6 months

  3. Quality of life assessment

    Quality-of-life questionnaires (EORTC-QLQ-C30). Most questions use a 4-point scale from "Not at all" to "Very much" with a one-week recall period. Raw scores are averaged and transformed into a 0-100 scale using official EORTC scoring algorithms.

    Time frame: 6 months

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Sep 9, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
