About this study

Official title: Multicenter Prospective Randomized Study on NeoAdjuvant Chemotherapy Followed by Radical Hysterectomy (OP) Versus Primary Chemo-RADiation in Patients With Cervical Cancer FIGO Stage IB2 and IIB

Randomized comparison of neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by radical hysterectomy with pelvic ± para-aortic lymphonodectomy (LNE) versus primary cisplatin-based chemo-radiation in patients with cervical cancer FIGO IB2 and IIB.

Read the detailed description

The optimal treatment for patients with cervical cancer on FIGO stage IB2 and IIB is controversial. There is no randomized comparison of a dose-dense NACT (TP or TIP-schedule) followed by hysterectomy and LNE (investigational Arm A) versus primary chemo-radiation (standard arm B). Primary endpoint is the DFS at 5 years, secondary endpoints local control at 5 years, OS at 5 years, QOL, questionnaires on sexual activity/QOL.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing hysterectomy, Radiation and Cisplatin in people with Cervical Cancer, run by Charite University, Berlin, Germany.

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 4 inclusion and 5 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Apr 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Simone Marnitz, MD (simone.marnitz@charite.de), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

disease free survival (time frame: 5 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02422563, which also lists 8 linked publications.

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 21 Apr 2015.
