Could less radiation be enough for some lymphoma patients?

NCT ID NCT07628738

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

Summary

This study looks at whether a lower dose of radiation can safely prevent cancer from returning in people with early-stage nasal-type NK/T-cell lymphoma who have already had a complete response to chemotherapy. Participants receive 45 Gy of radiation over five weeks, targeting the original tumor area and nearby lymph nodes. The main goal is to see how many patients remain free of local or regional recurrence two years after treatment.

Active substance

reduced-intensity radiotherapy

What this could lead to

If successful, this approach could offer a less toxic radiation option for certain lymphoma patients, potentially reducing side effects while maintaining cancer control.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-phase study (39 participants) with no control group, so results may not be definitive. The reduced radiation might be less effective at preventing recurrence than standard doses.
