Radiation proctitis

Researchers are testing whether tributyrin, a dietary supplement, can prevent radiation-induced rectal injury in people receiving chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced rectal cancer. About 23 participants will take tributyrin three times daily alongside standard treatment. The s…

This phase 2 trial tests whether a dietary supplement called tributyrin can reduce rectal bleeding in people who developed chronic radiation proctitis after pelvic radiotherapy. Participants take the supplement orally for 12 weeks, and researchers will measure changes in bleeding…

This study will follow 150 people with radiation rectal injury to see if different subtypes of the condition lead to different outcomes. Researchers will collect medical records, endoscopy images, and test results but will not change any treatments. The goal is to fill gaps in kn…

This study follows 1,000 adults who have long-term bladder or bowel problems from past cancer radiation and are receiving hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). Researchers want to learn which patients improve most and when treatment works best. The goal is to better understand how to…

This study looks at whether repeated sessions of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) can damage DNA in people who have had radiation for cancer. HBOT is used to help heal tissues damaged by radiation, but it also creates reactive oxygen molecules that might harm DNA. Researchers wil…
