Radiation and steroid dosing can affect the immune composition of brain metastasis (BM). The authors have designed a pilot study of pre-operative stereotactic radiosurgery with low or high dose of peri-operative dexamethasone for resectable brain metastases, here reporting clinical outcomes and characterization of intratumor TCF1+ CD8+ stem-like T cell immune niches in the brain.
