NCT ID NCT07175350

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 24 times

Summary

This study looks at the financial burden (called 'financial toxicity') that cancer patients face when getting radiation therapy. Researchers will ask 1000 adults in Italy to fill out a questionnaire about costs and worries. The goal is to understand how treatment expenses affect patients' lives, not to test a new drug or treatment.
