One-Time radiation blast shows promise for containing limited metastatic cancer
NCT ID NCT03543696
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a single, high dose of targeted radiation can control cancer that has spread to just a few spots (1-5 tumors). 150 adults with limited metastatic cancer received this treatment to see if it could delay further spread and improve survival. The goal is to offer a non-surgical option to manage the disease long-term.
