NCT ID NCT03716193

First seen Mar 05, 2026 · Last updated May 08, 2026 · Updated 6 times

Summary

This study tested a special scanner (EPR oximetry) to measure oxygen levels in skin tumors. Researchers wanted to see if breathing pure oxygen changes tumor oxygen during standard cancer treatments like radiation or chemo. Only 3 people took part before the study ended early. The goal was to learn if this tool could help doctors understand tumors better, not to treat the cancer itself.
