    About This Study

    The purpose of this study is to help patients who have cancer that has spread to their bones but is not causing pain yet. We want to find out if giving radiation therapy before symptoms start can help prevent problems from bone cancer. Volunteers in this study will either get the usual care or the usual care plus radiation. The goal is to see which option works better to stop bone problems like fractures or spinal cord issues.
