NCT ID NCT06440174
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study observes 160 adults with oesophageal cancer to see if an endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) changes their treatment plan after standard scans. Researchers will also interview patients and doctors to understand their views on using EUS. The goal is to learn when this test is most helpful, not to test a new treatment.
