Scientists test faster radiation to fight cancer, reduce treatment burden
NCT ID NCT04425967
Summary
This study is comparing two different schedules of radiation therapy given before surgery for soft tissue sarcoma. Researchers want to see if a shorter, 3-week course of radiation works as well as the standard 5-week course at preventing the cancer from coming back and causes similar side effects. The goal is to maintain good cancer control while potentially reducing the time and burden of treatment for patients.
