NCT ID NCT06904365
First seen Sep 30, 2025 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026 · Updated 20 times
Summary
This study tests a new method to protect the ovaries of young women (ages 18-50) who need pelvic radiation for cancers like uterine or rectal cancer. Researchers will use daily CT scans to see if they can adjust the radiation beam to avoid the ovaries while still treating the tumor. The goal is to reduce the risk of early menopause and infertility. Only 10 participants will be enrolled to see if this approach is feasible.
