PLATO ACT3
Is a prospective non-randomised phase II trial which will evaluate a treatment plan in patients with early, small tumours who have undergone surgery (local excision). Patients with no tumour cells close to the cut edge of the removed tissue (margins >1mm) have no further treatment, and those with tumour cells close to the cut edge (margins ≤1mm) receive additional lower-dose CRT (41.4Gy in 23 fractions). We aim to determine whether this treatment strategy results in acceptably low rates of the cancer coming back.
