Single-dose radiation for low-risk breast cancer
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This trial tests a single, high-precision dose of radiation to the tumor instead of standard surgery or multiple radiation sessions. It is for women with a small, low-risk breast cancer who cannot or choose not to have surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests how a single, high-dose radiation treatment (called SBRT) affects quality of life and outcomes for people with certain lung tumors. It's for adults with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer or a lung tumor that has spread from another cancer, as long as the tumor is small and in the outer part of the lung.
This trial tests giving a single, very targeted dose of radiation right after surgery for early-stage breast cancer. It is for women age 40+ with small, low-risk tumors (Luminal A or B) that have been fully removed and have not spread to lymph nodes.
This trial tests a new, shorter radiation treatment given all at once after breast-conserving surgery for early-stage breast cancer. It is for people with small tumors that have not spread far, and aims to reduce side effects and visits to the clinic.
This trial tests a single, shorter course of radiation given before breast surgery for people with low-risk, hormone-receptor–positive breast cancer. It may help treat the breast tumor while reducing the number and length of radiation treatments.
This trial tests a precise type of radiation called SBRT for breast cancer in patients aged 70 or older who cannot have surgery or choose not to. The goal is to see if this treatment can effectively control the tumor without surgery.
This trial tests a very short, one-time form of radiation (SBRT) to treat prostate cancer. It aims to see whether treating the prostate in one shot is safe and effective for carefully selected patients.
