Light-Activated nails could ease pain from pelvic cancer spread
NCT ID NCT06083896
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This early-phase trial is testing whether a minimally invasive procedure using special light-activated nails can help stabilize the pelvis in people whose cancer has spread to the bone around the hip socket. Fifty adults with confirmed cancer and visible pelvic metastases will be enrolled. The main goal is to see if they have better function and fewer complications within three months after the procedure.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
photodynamic nails
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a less invasive way to stabilize pelvic bone tumors, helping patients move better and have less pain.
What could go wrong
This is a very early Phase 1 trial with only 50 people, so it may not show clear benefit. There are also risks from the procedure itself, like infection or nail failure.
