Summary
"This trial is comparing a lower dose of radiation therapy to the standard dose in treating patients with a type of slow-growing lymphoma. Radiation therapy uses high energy to kill cancer cells. The standard treatment usually
Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with a slow-growing type of blood cancer called indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma. It's specifically for those who have seen their disease return after treatment. Participants should be able to undergo radiation therapy and other imaging procedures like CT scans or PET scans.
What is being tested?
The study is testing if giving a lower dose of radiation in just 3 treatments can be as effective and safer than the standard 12 treatments for this lymphoma. Patients will also undergo diagnostic tests, such as CT scans, endoscopic procedures, PET scans, and answer questionnaires.
What are the potential side effects?
Reduced dose radiation may lead to fewer side effects compared to standard doses but can still include skin irritation at the treatment site, fatigue, mild swelling or pain around treated areas. Long-term risks might involve changes in blood counts or rare secondary cancers.

Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: ARM 1 (reduced dose ISRT)Experimental Treatment5 Interventions
Patients undergo reduced dose ISRT once daily (excluding weekends) over 3 treatment fractions. Patients also undergo CT or PET/CT throughout the study. Patients may additionally undergo endoscopy during screening and during follow up.
Group II: ARM 2 (SOC ISRT)Active Control5 Interventions
Patients undergo standard of care (SOC) radiation therapy once daily (excluding weekends) over 12 treatment fractions. Patients also undergo CT or PET/CT throughout the study. Patients may additionally undergo endoscopy during screening and during follow up.
