A Study of Gene Polymorphisms and Normal Tissue Radiation Injury in Patients Treated for Breast, Prostate, Brain, Lung, and Head and Neck Cancers

NCT00122239 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 13

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study will examine, for the first time, the independent contribution of a patient's own genetic makeup to the development of post-radiation complications, permitting the future development of predictive tests to avoid radiation injury. To do this, the investigators will examine gene markers in a series of breast, prostate, brain and lung cancer survivors who have received conformal radiotherapy between 1996 and 2003 at the Cross Cancer Institute and Tom Baker Cancer Centre.
