One-and-Done boost: robot radiation may cut skin damage in breast cancer
NCT ID NCT02867423
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a single, precise dose of radiation from a CyberKnife robot could replace multiple standard boost treatments after whole-breast radiation in 29 women with early-stage breast cancer. The goal was to reduce skin side effects like redness and swelling while keeping the cancer under control. Participants had surgery first, then received the CyberKnife boost in one session instead of several.
