The Biomarker Analysis in Locally Advanced Cervical Cancer

Uterine Cervical Neoplasms

Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling, including Gli1, is critical to treatment resistance. For optimizing cervical cancer treatment, the pathological prognostic factors determine whether to administer adjuvant therapy. However, the majority of clinical results was from squamous cell carcinoma, rendering conclusions for adenocarcinoma less convincing. We aimed to examine the role of Shh signaling in long-term clinical outcomes of cervical adenocarcinoma after receiving major surgery.

Chemotherapy With Anlotinib in Advanced Cervical Cancer

Uterine Cervical Neoplasms

STUDY HYPOTHESIS: The primary hypothesis is whether chemotherapy with Anlotinib improves overall survival in advanced cervical cancer. TRIAL DESIGN: The study is a prospective, single-arm, observational clinical study. The study will be performed on an intent-to-treat population. All the enrolled patients received chemotherapy with Anlotinib. PRIMARY ENDPOINT: Overall survival, defined as the observed length of life from entry into the study to death from any cause or the date of last contact.

TMMR (Total Mesometrial Resection) Register Study

Cervical Cancer

TMMR/tLNE was shown to result in very low locoregional recurrence rates and low morbidity in surgical treatment of cervical cancer stage IB-IIA without any adjuvant radiotherapy even in high risk situations. More and more this therapeutic strategy is implemented in clinical routine in specialized cancer centres, thus, treatment of cervical cancer could be performed for these stages in a systematically defined and reproducible radicality; adjuvant radiotherapy could be spared for recurrent disease, thus lowering morbidity and resource assignment in primary treatment dramatically. Due to the nerve-sparing character of the procedure bladder, bowel and sexual dysfunction would also be minimized and markedly benefit the patient. This study is designed to follow up the results of this therapeutic concept adapted to clinical routine in a multiinstitutional register study accompanied by detailed assessment of pathological work-up, quality of life and bladder and sexual function following surgery.

Studying Biomarkers in Blood Samples From Patients With Invasive Cervical Cancer

Cervical Cancer

RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors identify and learn more about biomarkers related to cancer. It may also help doctors predict how well patients will respond to treatment. PURPOSE: This research study is looking at biomarkers in blood samples from patients with invasive cervical cancer.

The Correlation Between Tumor Angiogenesis and the Effect of Radiation Therapy in Cervical Cancer...

Cervical Cancer

Carcinoma of the uterine cervix is a serious health problem. Cervical cancer is the most common malignant neoplasm of women in Taiwan. There were 2,720 new cases of invasive carcinoma of the cervix and 971 deaths from the disease in 2000. Cervical cancer is indeed is an important disease in Taiwan. The primary therapies for cervical cancer are surgery, radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy. Several clinical trials have showed that an improvement in time to progression and survival for patients given chemoradiotherapy compared with radiotherapy alone. Chemoradiotherapy is now regarded as standard modality to treat the locally advanced (stage IIB-IVA) or high-risk early-stage cervical cancer. However, some of the cervical cancer patients still failed to response to the treatment of cervical cancer or relapsed for completion of treatment. Angiogenesis plays an important role in the pathogenesis of cancer. Recent studies have related angiogenesis to cancer growth and metastasis Ultrasonography has been used in the gynecologic field for decades. The previous studies of our team have shown that incremental angiogenesis could be demonstrated in the tumorigenesis of ovarian, endometrial malignancies, and cervical caner. Besides, other growth factors such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and IL-6 have also been reported to correlate with the angiogenesis and the prognosis of cervical cancer. It seems that tumor angiogenesis could be utilized as a good marker to survey the severity of disease and prognosis of early-staged cervical cancer patients. There is no good method or marker which could be utilized to monitor the response of radiotherapy and evaluate the prognosis of cervical cancer patients with advanced stages. So we would like to propose this proposal to focus on the tumor angiogenesis in cervical cancer patients with advanced stages. There are several purposes in this study. First, we will evaluate the kinetic changes of tumor angiogenesis in cervical cancer patients who receive radiotherapy or concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Second, we will evaluate that if the tumor angiogenesis could be a marker to monitor the response of radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy in cervical cancer patients. The relation between tumor angiogenesis and radiotherapy will be explored and clarified by this study. The comprehensive role of tumor angiogenesis in cervical cancer will be elucidated by the results of this study.

Comparison of the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Type 16 E7-Specific Immune Response Between a Normal...

Cervical Cancer

Cervical cancer is the most frequent neoplasm and the third in mortality rate of the malignancies in women in the world. It results in about 200,000 women dying of cervical cancer each year worldwide. The available forms of treatment - surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy - are all cytoreductive treatment modalities, so, in addition to killing cancerous cells, healthy cells are also destroyed in the process. Indeed, there is a need to decrease the incidence of cervical cancer and develop better forms for its treatment. Human papillomaviruses (HPV) have been consistently implicated in causing cervical cancer especially those high-risk types (HPV 16, 18, 31, 45) which have been strongly associated with cervical cancer. HPV 16 was found in more than 50% of cervical cancer tissues. So, the host immune response plays an important role in determining the regression of a cervical abnormality or persistence and progression to a malignancy via targeting HPV. The ideal cancer treatment should be able to eradicate systemic tumors at multiple sites in the body while having the specificity to discriminate between neoplastic and nonneoplastic cells. In this regard, antigen-specific cancer immunotherapy represents an attractive approach for cancer treatment. By cooperating with Dr. TC Wu at the Johns Hopkins Medical Institutes, the investigators have recently developed some E7-specific cancer vaccines of different strategies such as DNA, or replication-defective SINrep5 virus. They found that these E7-chimeric DNA vaccines are capable of preventing and treating the growth of murine model tumors expressing E7. These positive results from the preclinical murine models have encouraged the investigators to focus on the development of a cancer vaccine and immunotherapy and apply these vaccines to human subjects. However, it is very important to set up various E7-specific immunologic assays of human beings to evaluate the effects of a cancer vaccine or immunotherapy in future clinical trials. So the investigators would like to provide this proposal to address the development of HPV 16 E7-specific immunologic assays in human beings. There are two main goals in this study. First, the investigators would like to establish and compare the differences of HPV type 16 E7-specific immunologic responses between the normal population, people with HPV infection, patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplastic (CIN) lesions, and patients with cervical cancer. Second, they would like to correlate the disease severity of cervical cancer with the immunologic responses to HPV type 16 E7 antigen.
