What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Participants With Delivery of 34 Gy in 10 Fractions

    Successful delivery of the radiation treatment defined as a total 34 Gy in a total of 10 fractions, 3.4 Gy per fraction. (Gray = GY is a measure of radiation dose delivered to tissue)

    Measured: measured at end of 10th fraction, usually within 7 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Serious Adverse Device Related Events Reported During the Course of the Study Through 6 Month Follow-up.

    Serious adverse device related events reported from treatment through 6 month follow-up and at 5-year follow-up are reported.

    Measured: Through 6 months
