U.S., Feb. 19 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06831461) titled 'Proton Versus Photon Radiotherapy in Adults with Primary Brain Tumors' on Feb. 12.
Brief Summary: This study will be done in adults with brain tumors having good prognosis requiring treatment with radiotherapy. The current practice for brain radiotherapy involves treatment using X rays (photon radiotherapy). Proton beam therapy is a more advanced form of delivering radiation, which allows the reduction of the dose of radiation to the parts of the brain surrounding the tumor. After treatment with photon radiotherapy, certain late effects of radiation, like memory decline, hormonal deficits, hearing loss, and worsening of neurological...
