5-Day radiation blitz could tame sarcomas before surgery
NCT ID NCT02701153
First seen Mar 19, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 7 times
Summary
This study tests a new radiation approach for adults with soft tissue sarcoma. Instead of weeks of daily radiation, patients receive higher doses over just 5 days before surgery. The goal is to see if this shorter course is safe, causes fewer long-term side effects like stiffness or swelling, and still controls the cancer. About 51 people with recurrent or high-grade sarcoma will take part.
