Comparative Study of Neoadjuvant Chemo/Brachytherapy and Chemotherapy Alone Before Radical Hysterectomy in Stage Ib2-IIa2 Cervical Cancer
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating combination group and chemotherapy group for Cervical Cancer. Completed, enrolled 120 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
For stage Ib2-IIa2 cervical cancer patients, neoadjuvant therapy followed by radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy is one of the managements. Post-operative concurrent chemo-radiotherapy is necessary if the patients have high-risk factors, including positive surgical margin, parametrium and pelvic nodes. Our previous retrospective study showed that combination of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and brachytherapy reduced the proportion of post-operative concurrent chemo-radiotherapy compared to neoadjuvant chemotherapy alone.
