Zapping a brain gland to fight untreatable cancer pain
NCT ID NCT06287515
Summary
This early-stage study is testing whether a single, highly focused dose of radiation to a small gland in the brain (the pituitary) can help relieve severe pain in cancer patients. It is for people whose pain is not controlled by standard treatments like opioids or surgery. The main goals are to see if the treatment is safe and to measure how much it might reduce pain and the need for pain medication.
