Zapping lung cancer: heat vs. scalpel in Head-to-Head trial
NCT ID NCT04430725
Summary
This study is comparing two standard ways to treat small lung tumors: a minimally invasive procedure that uses microwave energy to heat and destroy the tumor, and a small surgery to cut it out. Researchers want to see which method is safer, more effective at keeping the cancer from coming back, and better for patients' quality of life. The trial includes people with early-stage lung cancer or cancers that have spread to the lungs from other parts of the body.
