Could less radiation be better for head and neck cancer?
NCT ID NCT06477692
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is for people with head and neck cancer. It compares two types of radiation therapy: one that treats only the cancer and nearby lymph nodes (INRT) and one that treats a larger area (ENI). The goal is to see if the smaller treatment area works just as well and causes fewer side effects like skin irritation. About 80 participants will take part.
