New study aims to unlock jaws for cancer patients

NCT ID NCT06531083

Summary

This study is testing whether a program of early monitoring and physical therapy is practical and acceptable for people with head and neck cancer. It aims to see if starting jaw exercises and manual therapy early during radiation treatment can help prevent or reduce severe jaw stiffness, a common and painful side effect. The study will enroll 30 participants to see if people can stick with the program and if it's worth testing in a larger future trial.
