New balloon radiation aims to stop esophageal Cancer's return

This study looks at whether adding a special balloon-based internal radiation treatment after standard chemoradiation can lower the chance of the tumor coming back in people with esophageal cancer who choose not to have surgery. About 18 adults aged 20-85 with stage I-III esophageal cancer who have already completed initial chemoradiation will receive the extra radiation. The goal is to improve local tumor control while reducing side effects like fistulas or narrowing of the esophagus.
