Memory-Sparing radiation trial offers hope for advanced cancer patients

NCT ID NCT06518057

Summary

This study is testing a specialized form of radiation therapy for patients with breast or lung cancer that has spread to the fluid surrounding the brain and spine. The treatment aims to target cancer cells throughout this area while carefully avoiding a key memory center in the brain, hoping to control the disease longer with fewer thinking and memory side effects. It is enrolling 22 adults who are candidates for radiation therapy.
