MRI-guided radiation aims to slash side effects in endometrial cancer
NCT ID NCT07514325
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new way to deliver radiotherapy for endometrial cancer after surgery. Using real-time MRI guidance, doctors can target radiation more accurately and reduce damage to nearby organs like the bowel and bladder. About 61 women will receive five high-dose sessions over two and a half weeks. The main goal is to see if this approach causes fewer short-term side effects.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- MR-guided adaptive radiotherapy (MGART)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could offer a more precise and safer radiotherapy option for endometrial cancer, reducing bowel and bladder side effects.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-phase study (61 participants) testing safety, not yet proven to work better than standard treatment. Side effects may still occur.
