primary Outcomes
  1. description
    Assessment of the patient's pain, activities and quality of life will be gathered from the patient in returning for follow-up or by contacting the patient by phone approximately 1 week following the completion of their first procedure, whether it be the vertebral augmentation or the radiotherapy (5 - 10 days following). Mandatory assessments include: \- Worst Pain Score - Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) - The Worst Pain Assessment on the Brief Inventory Scale is an assessment tool of current pain intensity and pain intensity within the last 24 hours when not on pain control medications. 0 being no pain and 10 is the worst pain possible. See protocol attachments
    measure
    Pain Assessment From the Worst Pain Score on Brief Pain Inventory as Compared to Historical Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) 9714 Study.
    time Frame
    14 weeks
secondary Outcomes
  1. description
    Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire - The score of the RDQ is the total number of items checked - i.e. from a minimum of 0 (best) to a maximum of 24 (worst). Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) - scale from 10 (moribund, fatal processes progressing rapidly) to 100 (normal, no complaints, no evidence of disease).
    measure
    Activity Level Assessment From the Roland Morris Questionnaire (RDQ) and Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS)
    time Frame
    14 weeks
  2. description
    EORTC QLQ-C30 (version 3) - The QLQ-C30 is composed of both multi-item scales and single-item measures. These include five functional scales, three symptom scales, a global health status / QoL scale, and six single items. Each of the multi-item scales includes a different set of items - no item occurs in more than one scale. All of the scales and single-item measures range in score from 0 to 100. A high scale score represents a higher response level. Thus a high score for a functional scale represents a high / healthy level of functioning,a high score for the global health status / QoL represents a high QoL,but a high score for a symptom scale / item represents a high level of symptomatology / problems.
    measure
    Quality of Life Assessment From the EORTC QLQ C30 Questionnaire.

Full study description
brief Summary
Vertebral augmentation with radiotherapy to increase the functional status and quality of life for patients with vertebral body metastatic cancers.
detailed Description
The study quantifies the reduction of pain and changes in quality of life associated with vertebral augmentation. This study is conducted in patients with metastatic cancer or multiple myeloma involving the spine. This study addresses the value of vertebral augmentation in combination with radiotherapy in the setting of cancer to the spine. The patient's pain, overall quality of life, and fracture development/avoidance will be compared to patients treated only with radiotherapy in the past.
