Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)

Summary

This study is testing a 5-session radiation treatment (stereotactic body radiotherapy) for people with early-stage breast cancer who have already had a lumpectomy. The goal is to see if this shorter course is safe and has fewer side effects than standard longer radiation. About 40 participants aged 50 and older with small, hormone-positive tumors will be enrolled.
