Trial summary

Cervical cancer is the most common reproductive malignancy in developing country. Due to local invasion, radical hysterectomy cannot be performed in advanced cervical cancer (FIGO IIB - IVA) , so that radiation combined with chemoradiation (RCTX) is a traditional treatment nowadays.

About this study

Cervical cancer is the most common reproductive malignancy in developing country. Due to local invasion, radical hysterectomy cannot be performed in advanced cervical cancer (FIGO IIB - IVA) , so that radiation combined with chemoradiation (RCTX) is a traditional treatment nowadays. Lack of precise treatment strategies, recurrent ratesand metastasisis high ,and the 5-year survival rate is less than 50%. Therefore, it needs to explore a new strategy for improving the prognosis of advanced cervical cancer.

The prognosis of cervical cancer is closely related to its stages ,while the current FIGO clinical stage is too subjective , for example different gynecologic oncologists may give different diagnosis to the same patient. MRI, CT, PET/CT imaging examinations are commonly used as a referrence for clinical staging, but the sensitivity and specificity are not satisfied. In addition, lymph node metastasis significantly impacts the prognosis of cervical cancer . However, the lymph node invasion is not in current staging criteria.

Precision treatment after surgical staging is recommended by NCCN recently .Surgical staging in patients with advancedcervical cancer is safe and does not delay primary RCTX in few randomized study.Whether overall survival benefit the long-term clinical follow-up surgical staging is unknown.Blocking bilateral uterine artery can effectively reduce the tumor size and increase the operability , which has been conformed in locally advanced cervical cancer. Furthermore, ovarian dysfunction caused by RCTX could be avoided by ovarian transposition via surgical staging .

Based on this, we suggesta new surgical stagingfor patients with advanced cervical cancer , which includinglaparoscopic pelvic and para-aortic lymphadenectomy , uterine blood vessel blocking and ovarian transportation, in order to perform individualized postoperative RCTX, reduce tumor load , preserve ovarian function and improve life quality.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cervical Cancer, Stage IIB and Cervical Cancer Stage IIIA, run by Shanghai First Maternity and Infant Hospital.

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 1 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 1 Nov 2016. 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.

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 Xiaoqing Guo, PHD (18117203488, xiaoqingguo333@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The recurrence 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 1 Nov 2016.
