Temporal Immunologic Changes With Hypofractionated Radiation-Induced DNA Damage in Breast Cancer (NCT05406232)
Breast Radiation-induced Immunologic Genomic Hypofractionated Temporal Radiation Alterations DNA Damage (BRIGHT-RAD) Study.
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This study assesses changes to the immune cells following hypofractionated radiation-induced DNA damage in breast cancer patients. Radiation therapy may cause immune cells to enter tumors and target cancer cells. The goal of this study is to measure the change in the level of immune cells in the tumor before and after radiation therapy.
