Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study is being conducted to address key gaps in current knowledge and set the stage for rational design of strategies to prevent (pre-exposure to radiation), mitigate (post-exposure to radiation before overt signs/symptoms appear), and/or treat (post-onset of signs/symptoms) radiation dermatitis (itchy, dry skin or a rash on swollen, reddened skin).
