Summary

This study tested whether a fentanyl lozenge, given before radiation sessions, can prevent the sharp pain that happens when patients with bone metastasis are moved into position for treatment. 39 adults with cancer that spread to the bone and who had significant pain during setup took part. The goal was to see if the medicine could make the procedure less painful and improve patient satisfaction.
