About this study

Official title: CHEMOTHERAPY AND CONCOMITANT RADIOTHERAPY VS. RADIOTHERAPY IN THE TREATMENT OF PATIENTS WITH STAGE IIIB UTERINE CANCER

Compare the use of radiotherapy and concomitant chemotherapy, with the single use of radiotherapy in the treatment of patients with stage IIIB uterine cancer, having as an outcome the three year survival rate, the disease free survival rate, the locoregional control of the disease and the security of the treatments provided.

Specific objectives

  1. Describe and compare the demographic and clinical characteristics of both groups.
  2. Compare the three year survival rate in both groups.
  3. Compare the response to treatment in terms of locoregional control of the disease.
  4. Compare the appearance of severe and non severe adverse events directly related to the treatment in both intervention groups.

Inclusion criteria Women between 18 and 80 years old, diagnosed with uterine squamous cell cancer or stage IIIB adenocarcinoma (FIGO) with ECOG equal 1 or less and a Karnofsky equal or more than 70%.

Exclusion criteria Having a concomitant or previous neoplasia, except for patients with skin tumors not associated to melanomas, platelet count under 100.000, hemoglobin levels of 10 gr/dl or above before starting the first radiotherapy session, patients with recurrent invasive uterine carcinoma, patients with compromised para aortic lymph nodes, patients with active and non controlled pelvic infection by the beginning of the treatment, creatinine depuration less than 45 ml/min confirmed with glomerular filtration rate less than 45 ml/min, neutrophils count less than 1,500/ml, and pregnant or nursing woman.

Analysis The descriptive statistical analysis will be made with proportions for the categorical variables, and for numerical variables will be made with averages, medians, standard deviations and ranges. The comparison between categorical variables will be made with square Ji proof or exact Fisher's proof when square Ji proof doesn't meet the criteria. The comparison among continuous variables with normal distribution will be established with T student distribution proof or ANOVA, and Mann-Whitnew or Kruskall proofs will be used for variables that doesn't have this type of distribution.

For the three survival rate, the Kaplan Meier method will be applied, and the survival curves will be compared with the logarithmic range proof. The Cox proportional hazard model is going to be used for the multivariate analysis and to stablish reasons. Additionally 5 interim analysis will be made.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Chemotherapy and concomitant radiotherapy in people with Uterine Cervical Neoplasms, run by Instituto Nacional de Cancerologia, Columbia.

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 1 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Aug 2017. 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?

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?

Survival rate (time frame: 3 years). 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 11 Aug 2017.
