Thymoma treatment trial pulled before starting
NCT ID NCT02633514
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study was designed to see if adding chemotherapy to radiation therapy after incomplete surgery for thymoma or thymic carcinoma could improve survival. It planned to enroll adults aged 18-75 who had incomplete tumor removal. However, the trial was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled, so no results are available.
