Active clinical trials for "Uterine Cervical Neoplasms"

Brachytherapy for gynecological cancers will be studied retrospectively.

BACKGROUND: For patients with locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC) ineligible for concurrent chemotherapy, radiotherapy (RT) alone achieves complete response rate (CRR) <70% and long-term locoregional control (LRC) <62%. Hypofractionated (HF-)RT using older techniques results in comparable CRR and disease control, and low late toxicity rates (4-8%). Dose-adapted HF-RT using intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) with nodal simultaneous integrated boost (nSIB) could improve tumor control and toxicity. GENERAL OBJECTIVE: To determine the effectiveness and safety of HF-RT with (or without) nSIB in LACC among patients who are chemo-ineligible. PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: Phase 1: To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) for nSIB used in combination with pelvic HF-RT (2.67 Gray (Gy) x 15 fractions), using IMRT Phase 2: To assess the efficacy of HF-RT ± nSIB in terms of complete response rates at 3 months SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: To assess the efficacy of HF-RT ± nSIB in terms of progression free survival (PFS), locoregional PFS, distant metastasis free survival (DMFS), cervical cancer specific survival (CCSS), overall survival (OS) To assess the acute and late toxicity of HF-RT ± nSIB, and patient-reported quality of life outcomes EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the predictive utility of clinical and dosimetric variables for tumor response/control and toxicity. Variables: age, performance status, T- and N-stage, T-score, histology, baseline hemoglobin, clinical target volume and organs-at-risk doses, overall treatment time STUDY DESIGN: Phase 1: Dose-escalation study (standard 3+3 design) Phase 2: Single-arm clinical trial (Simon's two-stage design) STUDY TREATMENTS: Pelvic HF-RT ± nSIB to 40 Gy in 15 fractions using IMRT, followed by brachytherapy (BRT) 6.5-7.5 Gy x 4 fractions using 2D or image-guided techniques SAMPLE SIZE: One-sided hypothesis testing. H0: CRR p0 ≤64%; H1: CRR p1 ≥84%. Simon 2 stage: First stage, n1=28 will be enrolled. If response (r1) ≤18, the study will be stopped for futility. Otherwise, second stage: n2=22, for a total of 50. H0 will be rejected if r1+r2 ≥38, in 50 patients. This yields a type I error rate of 5% and power of 95% when the true response rate is ≥84%. Accrual: Accounting for 10% attrition, a n=55 will be targeted. At a rate of 4-5 patients quarterly, accrual may take 33-42 months. The trial may be opened to other centers to accelerate accrual.

A study on two different methods of invitation to participate to the cervical cancer screening programme will be conducted within a demonstration project to switch from cytology-based screening to HPV-based screening using self-sampling delivered through the network of pharmacy offices among regular screening attendants in the Barcelona Metropolitana Sud Area, in Catalonia. At the moment, eligible women are invited to participate to cervical cancer screening via a telephone call invitation explaining the new self-sampling method. Invitation via SMS containing a link to a webpage with information on most frequent questions might be an adequate alternative method that would save costs and workload on human resources. The aim of this study is to assess the impact on cervical cancer screening participation of an invitation method based on text messaging (SMS). The invitation method will be evaluated through an interventional trial, in which we will compare the invitation to cervical cancer screening using SMS versus a telephone call invitation explaining the new self-sampling method.

This study will look at cervical tissue samples in women with abnormal cervical cells to see if the frequency of the HPV 16/18 subtypes has changed in female populations today, after the introduction of the HPV vaccine. It will compare women who have been exposed to the HPV vaccine with those who have not.

The goals of this prospective, observational cohort study are to determine the feasibility of implementing paclitaxel therapeutic drug monitoring for cancer patients and explore the relationship between paclitaxel drug exposure and the development of neuropathic symptoms. This trial studies if paclitaxel can be consistently measured in the blood of patients with solid tumors undergoing paclitaxel treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Nerve damage is one of the most common and severe side effects of paclitaxel. The ability to consistently measure paclitaxel in the blood may allow doctors to control the dose of paclitaxel, so that enough chemotherapy is given to kill the cancer, but the side effect of nerve damage is reduced.

This is a single institute, single-arm, interventional trial to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) followed by Tegafur, Gimeracil and Oteracil Potassium Capsules consolidation chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer.

This is an exploratory, open label, multi-center trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of combination of durvalumab with BVAC-C in patients with cervical cancer refractory to or relapse after platinum-based first-line chemotherapy with safety lead-in phase. The study consists of 2 parts: part A, a safety lead-in phase, and part B, an exploratory safety and efficacy evaluation phase. Part A will be conducted as a 3+3 dose escalation manner, and part B will be conducted as a non-randomized single arm study. •Part A: Open-labeled; 3+3 dose-escalation; Multi-center; safety lead-in phase •Part B: Open-labeled; Non-randomized, Single arm; Multi-center, efficacy evaluation phase

This is a open label clinical trial to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a Recombinant Human Papillomavirus Nonavalent (Types 6,11,16,18,31,33,45,52,58)Vaccine(E.Coli) manufactured by Xiamen Innovax Biotech CO., Ltd., in healthy population aged 9-17 years old in comparison with aged 18-26.

Radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymph node dissection (+/- aortic lymph node dissection) is the standard treatment for early stage cervical cancer. And minimally invasive surgery has been successfully and safely demonstrated in the treatment of early stage cervical cancer. This study aims to compare total laparoscopic radical hysterectomy and total abdominal radical hysterectomy in terms of disease-free survival and overall survival. Rates and characteristics of recurrence, incidence of complications and morbidity, impact on quality of life and cost-effectiveness will also be determined.

This is a single-arm, multicenter, phase II study to investigate efficacy and safety of Toripalimab combined with chemotherapy (paclitaxel and cisplatin) and Bevacizumab as first-line treatment in patients with recurrent, refractory and metastatic cervical cancer
