Study summary

The aim of this trial was to evaluate the efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy in the locally advanced cervical cancer with residual lesions after concurrent chemoradiation therapy.

Read the detailed description
  1. Objective:

    To compare response rate and survivals of locally advanced stage cervical cancer patients with residual lesions who had CCRT alone to those who had adjuvant chemotherapy after CCRT.

  2. Patients:

    1. Cervical cancer stage IIb to IVa with histopathology of squamous cell carcinoma, adenosquamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma
    2. Complete CCRT(Radiation Does: A point 85Gy(+/-10%), B点50Gy(+/-10%), concurrent platinum-containing chemotherapy(cisplatin or carboplatin)
    3. MRI is performed within 4 weeks after CCRT and shows residual lesions (non-lymph node≥10mm, lymph node shortest diameter≥15mm).
  3. Methods:

The patients who have residual lesions after CCRT are randomized to arm A by observation or arm B by adjuvant chemotherapy with paclitaxel plus cisplatin every 3 weeks for 3 cycles.
