About this trial

This study is a multicenter, open-label, non-inferiority, randomized controlled, investigator-initiated clinical trial comparing the efficacy and safety of open radical hysterectomy versus minimally invasive radical hysterectomy using an endoscopic stapler as surgical treatments for early cervical cancer.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

2018 FIGO stage IB2 or IIA1 cervical cancer (tumor maximum diameter ≥2 cm and <4 cm)

Histologically confirmed squamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, or adenosquamous carcinoma

Planned for Type B or C radical hysterectomy

With adequate bone marrow, renal, and hepatic function

Disqualifiers

Histological types other than squamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, or adenosquamous carcinoma

Tumor size less than 2 cm classified as 2018 FIGO stage IA1, IA2, or IB1 disease

The following are observed on preoperative CT or MRI

Tumor size ≥4 cm

Trial design

Design model

Parallel

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Open radical hysterectomy

    Device

    Radical hysterectomy is performed via open surgery, and Wertheim clamp is used for preventing tumor spillage during colpotomy

  • Minimally invasive radical hysterectomy

    Device

    Radical hysterectomy is performed via minimally invasive surgery, and an endoscopic stapler is used for preventing tumor spillage during colpotomy

Treatment groups

494 Participants
are divided into 2 treatment groups
Group A: Open radical hysterectomyExperimental treatment 1 intervention
Group B: Minimally invasive radical hysterectomyExperimental treatment 1 intervention
