NCT ID NCT04594187
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 11, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looks at whether giving radiation to the lymph nodes after surgery can lower the chance of melanoma returning in people who are already receiving immunotherapy. About 168 adults with high-risk melanoma that has spread to a sentinel lymph node will take part. The goal is to see if adding radiation reduces the risk of cancer coming back in the same area.
