Study Summary

This trial is testing a new radiation therapy treatment for cancer in the groin area to see if it is more effective and has fewer side effects than the current standard of care.

Who is the study for?
Adults over 18 with a life expectancy of at least 6 months, receiving radiation therapy for malignancy without severe nodal involvement in the groin area. They must be able to attend weekly skin checks, have no allergies to products used in the study, and use contraception if necessary. Pregnant or breastfeeding women and those unable to consent or follow the treatment application protocol are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing StrataXRT against Aquaphor ointment for preventing and managing skin damage caused by radiation therapy in patients undergoing treatment to their groin nodes. The severity of skin reactions will be measured using established criteria.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include varying degrees of skin irritation, redness, peeling or blistering where StrataXRT or Aquaphor is applied. These symptoms are related to both the underlying radiation dermatitis being treated and possible reactions to the treatments themselves.
