NCT ID NCT07527884
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study will follow 130 people who had surgery for cancer that spread to the spine. Half will get radiation after surgery, half will not. Researchers want to see if radiation helps keep the cancer from coming back and improves how long patients live. The goal is to help doctors make better treatment decisions.

What this could lead to
