Summary
This study looks at whether a lower dose of radiation can safely control HPV-positive throat cancer in people who have never smoked or smoked very little. Researchers will follow 75 patients for up to 5 years to see if the cancer stays away and how their quality of life is affected. The goal is to find a treatment that works well but causes fewer side effects.
