“Exploring the Effects of Radiation and its Impact on Metastatic Brain Cancer” Dr. Paula Foster

Dr. Paula Foster presented “Exploring the Effects of Radiation and its Impact on Metastatic Brain Cancer” as part of the Join The Movement to End Brain Tumours - National Conference, in Toronto, on Saturday, October 22, 2016. Prophylactic RT is a standard treatment for all small cell lung cancer patients with response to chemotherapy to prevent the development of metastatic brain tumours, and it is now being considered for some breast cancer patients. Unfortunately RT has been shown to have multiple negative consequences in normal brain tissue including radio necrosis (tissue death), cognitive deficits and both short and long term neuro-inflammation. The purpose of this project is to investigate the impact of RT on brain metastases and dormant cancer cells and the influence that radiation-induced damage has on the growth of metastatic brain cancer.
