Pilot study probes pulsed radiation to fight recurrent brain cancer
NCT ID NCT05393258
Summary
This small, completed pilot study tested a new way to deliver radiation to patients with a specific type of recurrent brain tumor (IDH-mutant glioma) who had already received radiation before. The new method, called temporally-modulated pulsed radiation therapy (TMPRT), delivers radiation in many small, timed pulses instead of one large dose. The main goal was to see if this approach could control the tumor while causing fewer serious side effects and improving patients' quality of life.
