Common heart drug may help cancer survivors swallow again
NCT ID NCT07217938
Summary
This study is testing whether a 12-month course of pravastatin, a medication typically used for high cholesterol, can improve swallowing difficulties in people who had radiation treatment for head and neck cancer. The trial will enroll 48 participants who have had swallowing problems for at least two years after their cancer treatment. Researchers will measure if the drug is practical to use and if it helps people swallow better and more safely.
