Standardized Clinical Assessment for Leptomeningeal Metastasis
This study aims to create a reliable way to assess the neurological health of patients with leptomeningeal metastasis (cancer that has spread to the fluid and membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord). Researchers will use a 'Neurological Assessment' where two different evaluators will check your neurological status. The main goal is to see how well these evaluators agree on their findings, which will help create a consistent scoring system for future use in both research and patient care. You may be able to join if you are an adult with a confirmed diagnosis of cancer outside the brain and spinal cord, and have leptomeningeal metastasis. The study is currently unclear on its recruitment status.
- Study design
- This is an observational study planning to enroll 200 participants. It does not involve a new drug or treatment.
- What's involved
- You will undergo a clinical neurological assessment performed by two different raters.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- The primary goal of the study is measured at December 2026, focusing on agreement between raters.
