About this study

Official title: Proton Therapy in Locally Advanced Cervical Cancer in Combination With Concomitant Chemotherapy and Brachytherapy

The purpose of this protocol is to determine toxicity and efficacy of proton therapy in combination with standard concomitant platinum-based chemotherapy and standard image-guided adaptive brachytherapy (IGABT) in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC). The over-all aim is to maintain a high disease control and at the same time reduce acute morbidity as well as late side effects after treatment.

Being tested
Proton therapy
Medical subject headings
Uterine Cervical Neoplasms, Radiation Injuries

What is being measured

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

  1. Acute Bone marrow toxicity

    Grade 2+ Bone marrow toxicity

    Measured: Worst recorded baseline to 3 months after RT

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Late bone marrow toxicity

    Grade 2+ Bone marrow toxicity

    Measured: >3 month to 5 years after RT

  2. Toxicity

    Toxicity evaluated by NCI-CTCAE v. 5.0 (common terminology criteria for adverse events grade 0-5, 5 indicating worse outcome)

    Measured: baseline to 5 years after RT

  3. Patient Reported outcomes

    Patient reported outcomes (by EORTC QLQ-C30, grades 1-4 four indicating worse outcome)

    Measured: baseline to 5 years after treatment

  4. Patient Reported outcomes

    Patient reported outcomes (by European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) (Quality of life Questionnaire) QLQ-CX24 grades 1-4 four indicating worse outcome)

    Measured: baseline to 5 years after treatment

  5. cisplatin

    Cummulative dose (mg)

    Measured: 3 month

  6. Oncological outcomes

    Progression free survival

    Measured: 5-year

  7. Dosimetrics outcomes

    External Beam Radiotherapy dose volume to organs at risk (NCI-CTCAE) and comparison to (Image Guided intensity modulated external beam radiochemotherapy and MRI based adaptive brachy therapy in loaclly advanced cervical cancer) EMBRACE II cohort

    Measured: 3 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Proton therapy in people with Cervical Cancer and Proton Therapy, run by University of Aarhus at 1 site in Denmark.

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 9 inclusion and 13 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Jun 2024. 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 Denmark. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Hanne Matthiesen, MD, PhD (004592432356, hanne.from.mathiesen@regionh.dk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Acute Bone marrow toxicity (time frame: Worst recorded baseline to 3 months after RT). 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 17 Jun 2024.
