First seen May 01, 2026 · Last updated Jun 13, 2026 · Updated 9 times

Summary

This study compares two types of radiation therapy for people with slow-growing brain tumors (IDH-mutated gliomas). Proton therapy aims to better protect healthy brain tissue than standard photon therapy. The trial will check if proton therapy is as effective at controlling the tumor and if it leads to better quality of life and less fatigue. About 225 adults aged 18-65 who need radiation will participate.
