Can less radiation fight HPV throat cancer just as well?

NCT ID NCT03396718

Summary

This study is testing whether doctors can safely lower the radiation dose given to patients after surgery for HPV-positive throat cancer. The goal is to reduce long-term side effects like trouble swallowing or dry mouth, while still preventing the cancer from coming back. About 304 patients who have had surgery will receive a reduced radiation dose, and their health will be closely monitored for two years to see if the treatment remains effective.
