Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Candidate for OsteoCool RF ablation per the labeled indication applicable in their respective country/region
  • A. Metastatic lesions targeted for treatment must be located in the thoracic and/or lumbar vertebral body(ies), periacetabulum, iliac crest, and/or sacrum OR benign bone tumors - no restrictions on location of lesion
  • Report worst pain score ≥4/10 at the target treatment site within the past 24 hours
  • Localized pain resulting from no more than two sites total of metastatic disease
  • Have Karnofsky score ≥40 at enrollment (not applicable for subjects with benign bone tumors)
  • Willing and able to provide a signed and dated informed consent, comply with the study plan, follow up visits and phone calls
  • At least 18 years old at the time of informed consent

Exclusion Criteria

  • A. Implanted with heart pacemaker or other implanted electronic device (Europe and Canada only)

  • Multiple myeloma, solitary plasmacytoma, or primary malignant lesions in the index vertebra or bone
  • Active or incompletely treated local infection at the planned treatment site(s) and/or systemic infection
  • Planned treatment site(s) accompanied by objective evidence of secondary radiculopathy or neurologic compromise
  • Planned treatment site(s) associated with spinal cord compression or canal compromise requiring decompression
  • Fractures due to prostatic cancer or other osteoblastic metastases to the spine. Metastatic lesions originating in the prostate that are osteolytic or mixed origin are eligible for the study
  • Pregnant, breastfeeding, or plan to become pregnant during the study duration
  • Concurrent participation in another clinical study that may add additional safety risks and/or confound study results*
  • Any condition that would interfere with the subject's ability to comply with study instructions or might confound the study interpretation
