I have suffered through two complete courses of radiation both for head and neck squamous cell cancer.  While it cured my disease it has left me with significantly decreased functionality.  My reaearch to find a “cure” for the Fibrosis has turned up very little. It seems that there is a general consensus that radiation induced fibrosis (RAF) can be reversed there are no trials either ongoing or planned.  From what I’ve learned there is little interest from the pharm industry because no one can quantify the size of the potential market therefore no company will commit to funding the research 

Does anyone on this site either know of a trial , or perhaps a treatment using repurposed chemistry?  I think the market for a pharm based cure would be large.  

What are your thoughts and / or experiences with RAD?
