| Abstract | Objective The purpose of this study is to reveal the dose-effect relationship of linear accelerator (LINAC)-based stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) in patients with brain metastases (BM). Materials and methods The PubMed, Cochrane, and Web of Science databases were used to identify studies that reported local tumour control after LINAC-based SRT in patients with BMs. Studies of other approaches that could affect local tumour control, such as whole brain radiotherapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy, were excluded from the dose-effect relationship analysis. Data extracted included patient and treatment characteristics and tumour local control. Probit model in XLSTAT 2016 was used for regression analysis, and P < 0.05 was set as the statistically significant level. Results After literature screening, 19 eligible studies involving 1523 patients were included in the probit model regression analysis. There was no significant dose-effect relationship between nominal BED10 and peripheral BED10 versus 12-month local control probability. There were significant dose effect relationships between the centre BED10 and the average BED10 versus the 12-month local control probability, with P values of 0.015 and 0.011, respectively. According to the model, the central BED10 and the average BED10 corresponding to probabilities of 90% 12-month local control were 109.2 GyBED10 (95% confidence interval (CI): 88.7–245.9 GyBED10) and 87.8 GyBED10 (95% CI: 74.3–161.5 GyBED10), respectively. A 12-month local control rate of 86.9% (95% CI: 81.7–89.7%) and 85.5% (95% CI: 81.2–89.2%) can be expected at a centre BED10 of 80 Gy and an average BED10 of 60 Gy, respectively. Conclusion For patients with BM treated with LINAC-based SRT, more attention should be given to the central and average doses of PTV. A clear definition of the dose prescription should be established to ensure the effectiveness and comparability of treatment. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
