Brain radiation study withdrawn before any patients enrolled
NCT ID NCT06776406
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study was designed to test a new robotic system that keeps a patient's head still during radiation therapy for brain cancer. The goal was to see if the system could hold the head within a very small target area. However, the study was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled, so no results are available.
