This study of 92 melanoma brain metastases (MBM) patients investigated the impact of stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) and immunotherapy (IRT) on survival. Concomitant IRT and SRT significantly prolonged intracranial progression-free survival compared to IRT alone. Patients with both infra- and supratentorial brain metastases had significantly reduced overall survival compared to those with only supratentorial lesions.
