Summary
This study tested a new way to destroy lung tumors that have spread from other cancers (oligometastases) using a robotic bronchoscope and microwave heat. The goal was to see if the heat zone fully covered the tumor 30 days after the procedure. The study enrolled 12 adults whose primary cancer was under control, but it was terminated early.
