Recruiting NA Meningioma

New treatment option for Meningioma

Official title Neurocognitive Impact of Different Irradiation Modalities for Patients With Grade I-II Skull Base Meningioma:

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06036706

What this study is testing

What it's testing
For the purpose of this research, investigator will constitute several cohorts of patients, treated either by intensity-modulated radiotherapy, stereotactic radiotherapy or proton-therapy. This will allow better understanding the cognitive and anatomical damages caused by new radiotherapy techniques and better understanding how ionising radiation (X-rays or protons) acts in the long term on brain tissue.

A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
