Spinal Metastases

Hi i have just been diagnosed with secondary cancer in my spine. I have multiple metastases on my lumbar spine, one on my sacrum and one on my thoracic spine. I had breast cancer in 2023, which involved a left mastectomy, 15 rounds of chemotherapy and 15 rounds of radiotherapy. Since my treatment finished i have been on letrozole, adbemiciclib and leuprorelin injections. 

I am due to see my oncologist next week but I would like to know if there is any new research or development in the treatment of spinal metastases or any new trials of drugs of treatments that are happening that I could mention to my consultant. I am only 44 and I really want to try anything that can help me prolong my life. Even if it means travelling abroad. Please can you help me any information you can give me would be gratefully appreciated. 

thank you
