New oxygen sensor tested on skin cancers
NCT ID NCT03716193
First seen Mar 05, 2026 · Last updated Jun 20, 2026 · Updated 11 times
Summary
This study tested a method called EPR oximetry to measure oxygen levels in skin tumors. Researchers gave patients pure oxygen through a face mask and tracked how tumor oxygen changed. Only 3 people took part before the study was stopped, so the findings are very limited.

oxygen
What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors better understand how oxygen levels in skin tumors change during treatment, potentially guiding more effective cancer therapies.
What could go wrong
This was a very small, early feasibility study with only 3 participants and was terminated early, so results may not be reliable or generalizable.
