Could a 5-Day radiation blast replace weeks of treatment for sarcoma?
NCT ID NCT05776667
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a shorter, 5-day course of radiation before surgery for soft tissue sarcoma, instead of the usual several weeks. The goal is to see if patients choose this option and if it works as well for controlling the tumor. About 16 adults with sarcoma in an arm, leg, or trunk will take part. The study focuses on treatment convenience and early results, not a cure.
