Reversing External-beam Radiotherapy-associated Fibrosis Syndrome: an Interventional Bayesian Adaptive Randomized-controlled Orphan Drug Platform Trial for Orodental Sequelae (Reverse-fibrose)
Sponsor
M.D. Anderson Cancer Center
Enrollment
250 participants
Start Date
Aug 8, 2025
Study Type
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
To find out if adding medication can help treat or prevent lymphedema and/or fibrosis related to radiation therapy, in survivors of head and neck cancer. Researchers will compare these drugs to find the most effective therapy for preventing or limiting these side effects.
