NCT ID NCT07616297

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether giving a higher radiation dose to the tumor can help people with early-stage rectal cancer keep their rectum instead of needing surgery. About 25 adults will receive targeted radiation using a special adaptive technique. The goal is to see if this approach can increase the chance of organ preservation and avoid a permanent stoma.
