Proton beam offers new hope for recurrent tumors
NCT ID NCT05313191
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether proton therapy can safely treat cancers that return after standard radiation. Proton beams are more targeted than traditional X-rays, so they may deliver stronger doses to the tumor while sparing healthy tissue. Researchers will track side effects and how well the cancer is controlled in 1,800 adults with various recurrent or new tumors.
