One-Week radiation before sarcoma surgery could cut complications

NCT ID NCT06087861

First seen Apr 15, 2026 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether a 5-day course of radiation before surgery for soft tissue sarcoma is as safe and effective as the standard 25-day course. About 75 adults with sarcoma in an arm, leg, trunk, or abdomen will receive the shorter radiation and then surgery. The main goal is to see if this shorter treatment reduces post-surgery complications while still controlling the cancer.
