First seen Apr 29, 2026 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 3 times

Summary

This study tests whether removing a thin membrane that forms in the nose/throat after repeat radiation can prevent tissue death (necrosis) in people with recurrent nasopharyngeal cancer. About 40 adults who have had a second round of radiation will undergo a scope-based removal procedure. The goal is to cut the 2-year risk of necrosis from 40% down to 20%.
