Scientists probe tumors for clues to make radiation work better
NCT ID NCT00188539
Summary
This study aims to learn if the amount of oxygen inside a cervical tumor and the fluid pressure around it can predict how well the tumor will respond to radiation therapy. Researchers will measure these factors in over 300 patients with newly diagnosed cervical cancer. The goal is to gather knowledge that could one day help doctors personalize treatment plans, but this study itself does not test a new treatment.
