About this trial
The primary aim of the trial is to investigate the late effects of hypofractionated external radiation (39 Gy in 13 fractions) in patients requiring post-operative radiation for early-stage cervical and endometrial cancers.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to 2
Histologically confirmed diagnosis of cervical cancer post hysterectomy with intermediate or high-risk features, requiring adjuvant EBRT ± concurrent chemotherapy OR histologically confirmed diagnosis of endometrial cancer post hysterectomy requiring adjuvant (chemo)radiotherapy to pelvis with/without vaginal brachytherapy.
Disqualifiers
Patients with macroscopic residual disease (R+ resection) postoperatively
Patients requiring extended field radiotherapy (patients with involved para-aortic lymph nodes in cervical or endometrial cancer)
Patients treated with chemotherapy for any prior malignancy at any time
Patients treated with pelvic radiation previously
Trial design
Single group
Treatments tested in this trial
Hypofractionated Image guided External Beam Radiation Therapy (EBRT)
RadiationExternal beam radiotherapy to pelvis: Post operative hypofractionated external beam radiotherapy with intensity modulated/arc technique, to a dose of 39 Gy in 13 fractions, at 3 Gy per fraction, delivered once daily, 5 days a week, over 2.5-3 weeks.
Cisplatin
DrugPatients who require adjuvant chemotherapy along with radiation, based on predefined risk features, will receive 5 cycles of cisplatin on a weekly basis with a dose of 40 mg/m2 by IV infusion over a period of 1 hour 2-4 hours prior to start of EBRT.
Vaginal brachytherapy
RadiationVaginal brachytherapy, two fractions of 6 Gy each, delivered 1 week apart.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
3-year cumulative incidence of grade ≥2 gastrointestinal or genitourinary toxicity
To evaluate the 3-year cumulative incidence of late grade ≥2 gastrointestinal or genitourinary toxicity using CTCAE version 5 scoring receiving radiation with hypo fractionation.
Secondary outcomes
Pelvic Control Rate at 3 years
To report 3 year pelvic control rate (local and pelvic nodal) in patients receiving hypofractionated radiotherapy.
Disease Free Survival at 3 years
To report 3 year disease free survival in patients receiving hypo fractionated radiotherapy.
Overall Survival at 3 years
To report 3 year overall survival in patients receiving hypo fractionated radiotherapy.
Acute Toxicities Evaluation
Acute toxicity will be reported using CTCAE V. 5.0
