Faster radiation treatment tested for slowing brain tumor growth

NCT ID NCT04278118

Summary

This study is testing whether a shorter, more intense course of proton radiation therapy can effectively control the growth of non-cancerous brain tumors. It aims to see if this approach can stop tumor progression for at least three years while potentially reducing side effects and making treatment more convenient for patients. The trial will enroll 70 people with specific types of benign brain tumors who are already recommended to receive radiation therapy.
