Abstract.Let $R$ be a ring and $M$ be a left $R-$module. In this work some properties of (amply) cofinitely $\text{\rm Rad}$-supplemented modules are developed. It is shown that if $M$ contains a nonzero semi-hollow submodule then $M$ is cofinitely $\text{\rm Rad}$-supplemented if and only if $M/N$ is cofinitely $\text{\rm Rad}$-supplemented. Morever a module $M$ with small radical is cofinitely $\text{\rm Rad}$-supplemented such that $\text{\rm Rad}$-supplements are supplements in $M$, then $M$ is cofinitely supplemented. In addition, a ring $R$ is left $\text{\rm Rad}$-supplemented if and only if every left $R$-module is amply cofinitely $\text{\rm Rad}$-supplemented. Also, we give a characterization of generalized semiperfect modules.
