Oxygen therapy under scrutiny: could it harm cancer Survivors' DNA?

NCT ID NCT06999785

First seen Apr 11, 2026 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 5 times

Summary

This study looks at whether repeated sessions of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) can damage DNA in people who have had radiation for cancer. HBOT is used to help heal tissue damage from radiation, but it also creates reactive oxygen molecules that might harm cells. Researchers will measure DNA damage in 60 adults receiving HBOT to better understand any long-term cancer risks.
