Could less radiation mean fewer side effects for throat cancer patients?

NCT ID NCT07497607

Summary

This study is testing whether using a lower dose of radiation to healthy-looking areas around throat tumors can be just as effective as standard treatment while reducing side effects. The trial will enroll 31 adults with HPV-positive throat cancer who are scheduled for standard chemoradiation. Researchers will compare the new approach to historical data to see if it maintains cancer control while improving patients' quality of life.
