Could Once-Daily radiation replace Twice-Daily for breast cancer recurrence?
NCT ID NCT06129747
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 07, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study is for women whose breast cancer has come back after initial breast-conserving surgery and whole breast radiation. The standard treatment after repeat surgery is radiation twice a day for 30 sessions. This trial tests whether giving radiation once a day for 15 sessions works just as well. Researchers will track side effects and whether the cancer returns in the breast.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- radiation therapy
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could offer a shorter, more convenient radiation schedule for women whose breast cancer has returned after initial treatment.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small Phase 2 study with only 55 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The once-daily schedule might be less effective or cause different side effects than the standard approach.
