NCT ID NCT05780372
First seen May 20, 2026 · Last updated May 20, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether using a smaller area of radiation on the neck is as effective as the standard larger area for treating nasopharyngeal cancer. About 474 patients with early-stage cancer will be randomly assigned to receive either the reduced or conventional radiation. The goal is to see if the smaller area can prevent cancer from coming back while causing fewer side effects and improving quality of life.
