What this could lead to
If it works, this could show that adding radiotherapy after surgery helps prevent cancer from coming back in patients with high-risk adrenocortical carcinoma.
What could go wrong
This is a small early-stage trial with only 58 people, so results may not apply to everyone. Radiotherapy can cause side effects like damage to nearby organs.
