Could Once-Daily radiation replace Twice-Daily for breast cancer recurrence?

NCT ID NCT06129747

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

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.

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.
