Brain metastases, the spread of cancer cells from their original site to the brain, represent a significant challenge in cancer treatment. With the aim of fostering collaboration and advancing research in this critical area, the National Cancer Institute organized a collaborative workshop. This event brought together leading scientists, clinicians and researchers from diverse fields to discuss the latest advancements, challenges, and future directions in brain metastases research. This essay delves into the key discussions and outcomes of the NCI Collaborative Workshop, highlighting its impact on shaping the landscape of brain metastases research. Brain metastases are a complex manifestation of advanced cancer. The workshop commenced with an in-depth exploration of the biological and molecular mechanisms that drive cancer cells to migrate to the brain. Discussions focused on the unique microenvironment of the brain, the blood-brain barrier, and the challenges these factors pose in delivering effective treatments.
