About this study

The main aim is to validate and improve the predictive model for survival and toxicity in patients with cervical cancer through multicentric prospective data collection. The data contain information on patient, tumor and treatment characteristics. For this study, additional health related QOL scores will be assessed using the EORTC Quality of Life Questionair-CX24 and C30. The long term aim, beyond this specific study, is to build a Decision Support System based on the predictive model validated in this study.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. five-year overall survival rate

    assessment of the overall survival 5 years after treatment

    Measured: 5 years after treatment

Secondary outcomes (6)

    assessment of distant disease free survival, 3 years after treatment

    Measured: 3 years

  2. three-year local disease free survival

    assessment of local disease free survival, 3 year after treatment

    Measured: 3 years

  3. five-year distant disease free survival

    assessment of distant disease free survival,5 years after treatment

    Measured: 5 years

  4. five-year local disease free survival

    assessment of local disease free survival, 5 years after treatment

    Measured: 5 years

  5. number of participants with early adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability

    Measured: 2 months

  6. number of participants with late adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability

    Measured: 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cervical Cancer, run by Maastricht Radiation Oncology at 2 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 May 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Netherlands, South Africa. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

five-year overall survival rate (time frame: 5 years after treatment). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 May 2019.
