NCT ID NCT04414202
First seen May 13, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at giving a single dose of radiation directly to the tumor site during breast-conserving surgery for women aged 60 and older with early-stage, hormone-sensitive breast cancer. The goal is to see if this shorter, more targeted approach works as well as standard weeks-long radiation while reducing side effects. About 519 participants are being followed for 5 to 10 years to check for cancer return and cosmetic results.
