Internal radiation blasts tumors in NIH cancer trial
NCT ID NCT00924027
Summary
This study tested a type of internal radiation treatment called high-dose-rate brachytherapy for several cancers, including cervical, prostate, and breast cancer. Researchers placed temporary radiation sources directly into or near tumors to deliver a strong, focused dose. The main goal was to check if the treatment was delivered accurately and to monitor how well it controlled cancer and its side effects over a year.
