Radiation blitz could extend life for lung cancer patients when drugs start failing

NCT ID NCT06813664

Summary

This study is testing whether using precise, high-dose radiation on a few spots where cancer is growing can help patients with advanced lung cancer stay on their current targeted drug therapy longer. It will involve 60 adults whose cancer has specific genetic changes and has started to progress in up to five areas. Researchers will track how long the treatment keeps the cancer from worsening and monitor side effects and quality of life.
