First seen Dec 26, 2025 · Last updated May 09, 2026 · Updated 16 times
Summary
This study tests whether adding a precise, high-dose X-ray treatment (contact X-ray brachytherapy) to standard chemotherapy can help people with intermediate-stage rectal cancer keep their rectum and avoid major surgery. About 212 adults with tumors 3.1 to 6 cm in size will be enrolled. The goal is to see if this combination increases the chance of living without needing a permanent colostomy or rectum removal.
