Summary
This study tests a new device called the Maastro applicator that delivers high-dose radiation directly to rectal tumors from inside the body. The goal is to see if it can safely and effectively destroy the cancer so that some patients may not need surgery. About 20 adults with rectal cancer will receive this treatment, and doctors will monitor how well the tumor shrinks and whether it stays away over time.
