NCT ID NCT07291895

First seen Dec 29, 2025 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 14 times

Summary

This study compares standard palliative radiotherapy (24 Gray in 3 sessions) with a higher dose (27 Gray in 3 sessions) for patients with bulky metastatic cancer that has spread. The goal is to see if the higher dose improves local tumor control and survival. About 20 adults with solid tumors and large lesions (over 5 cm) will participate, and neither they nor their doctors will know which dose they receive.
