Precision proton beams target prostate cancer with fewer side effects
NCT ID NCT04725903
Summary
This study is testing whether proton radiation therapy can treat high-risk prostate cancer while causing fewer digestive and urinary side effects than traditional radiation. Researchers will treat 30 patients with advanced prostate cancer using precisely targeted proton beams that deliver radiation directly to tumors while sparing healthy tissue. The main goal is to see if this approach reduces common side effects while still effectively controlling the cancer.
