Image-Guided 125I Seed Implantation Plus Standard Systemic Therapy for Patients With Multiple Metastatic Lesions

Patients with more than five and up to ten metastatic lesions often have limited tolerance for surgery, radiotherapy, or thermal ablation because of cumulative treatment burden or expected toxicity. In this setting, systemic therapy alone frequently remains the primary treatment option. This prospective, open-label, randomized phase 2 study evaluates whether image-guided iodine-125 (125I) seed implantation, when added to standard-of-care systemic therapy, can improve disease control compared with standard systemic therapy alone in patients with multiple metastatic lesions. Clinical outcomes including progression-free survival, overall survival, safety, and quality of life will be prospectively assessed.
