Freezing tumors instead of surgery: new breast cancer trial

NCT ID NCT05505643

Summary

This study is testing whether freezing small breast tumors (cryoablation) works as well as standard surgery (lumpectomy) for early-stage breast cancer. Researchers will compare both treatments in 120 women aged 50+ with low-risk tumors to see which has fewer complications, better cancer control, and improved quality of life. The trial first checks the safety of the freezing procedure before directly comparing it to surgery.
