New radiation program aims to tame spine tumors with pinpoint accuracy
NCT ID NCT07429422
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing a highly precise radiation method called SBRT for people with cancer that has spread to the spine. The goal is to deliver strong radiation doses while protecting nearby healthy tissue. Researchers will track side effects and how well the treatment controls the tumors in 100 adult patients over 12 months.
