Trial summary

Cervical cancer affects more than 3000 new cases per year in France. The treatment of stage IB3 to IVA cervical cancer is based on concomitant radio-chemotherapy. The irradiation volumes are based, according to current recommendations, on imaging examinations and / or on the results of a laparoscopic Para-aortic… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Assesment of Paraaortic Lymphadenectomy in Locally Advanced Cervical Cancer, When no Pathologic Pelvic Lymph Node on PET/CT: Retrospective Study.

Cervical cancer affects more than 3000 new cases per year in France. The treatment of stage IB3 to IVA cervical cancer is based on concomitant radio-chemotherapy. The irradiation volumes are based, according to current recommendations, on imaging examinations and / or on the results of a laparoscopic Para-aortic lymphadenectomy (PAL). There is some risk of false negatif with the PET/CT. For this reason, most of the time, PAL is offered when there is no pathological paraaortic lymph node on PET/CT. The investigators suppose that this staging surgery could be avoid when no pathological pelvic nodes are identified on PET/CT. The investigators use a retrospective study, to analyse histological report of systematic PAL, comparing to results of pre-operative PET/CT.

What is being measured

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

  1. negative predictive value of PET/CT on para aortic nodes when no pathological pelvic nodes.

    negative predictive value of PET/CT on para aortic nodes when no pathological pelvic nodes.

    The intraoperative 3D optical scan gives the tumor localization obtained by radioguided occult lesion localization thanks to pen marking left by the surgeon. The comparison is done by superimposing both acquisitions.

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cervical Cancer, run by University Hospital, Montpellier at 1 site in France.

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 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 29 Jul 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. 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?

negative predictive value of PET/CT on para aortic nodes when no pathological pelvic nodes. (time frame: 1 day). 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 29 Jul 2020.
