Prevention of cervical cancer with cervical screening is one of the most successful screening activities in medicine. In Sweden, screening was implemented in the 1960s and has since prevented tens of thousands of women from having cervical cancer. Individual invitations to screening result in increased attendance therefore evaluating strategies for reaching women through invitations is particularly valuable. Women who regularly attend screening following an invitation reduce their risk of cervical cancer by as much as 90%. Of the women who are diagnosed with cervical cancer (about 550 women per year in Sweden), as many as 38% did not participate in the screening. Invitations for screening are sent to the entire population in Sweden aged 23-70. The current coverage of screening is 82.9%, which represents the proportion of women ages 23-70 who attend according to recommendations. In addition, many women are sporadic attenders who reduce their risk for cancer somewhat. The highest cancer risk is seen among those women who have never participated as well as women who have had a history of precancerous lesions or HPV infection but have not been followed-up. Cervical cancer is the first form of cancer for which there are approved molecular screening tests (HPV test). Unlike the older screening method (cytology), self-collected samples can be analyzed for HPV (the analysis method is so sensitive that it does not matter if the sample is not optimally taken). Invitations and reminders about cervical screening are sent by letter to the woman's home address (about 3 million letters per year in Sweden). This strategy results in a waste of resources and has a negative environmental impact. Regarding reminders, we have seen in previous research that the effect is not optimal. When sending a physical reminder letter to women who have not participated in more than 10 years (current routine), only 2% of the women invited came for sampling. Reminders with SMS are now standard for many businesses in society, such as car testing or dental appointments. It is inexpensive, saves the environment and there are studies that suggest it is more effective than sending physical letters. In this study, we intend to investigate whether SMS reminders, electronic letters, and physical letters for screening lead to increased participation and thus to a higher proportion of detected, treatable precursors of cervical cancer compared to before.
This study proposes to describe and evaluate the rate of spontaneous regression of CIN2 at 2 year of follow up in women between 18 and 39 year old. This follow-up is proposed as an alternative to the treatment of reference (conization) with a possible extension to 4 years
The standard treatment for non-operative cervical cancer is concurrent external radiation therapy and chemotherapy followed by brachytherapy. During the period of radiotherapy, organ movement and tumor shrinkage may lead to insufficient or excessive radiation dose for the tumor and organs at risk. Adaptive radiotherapy can use images information acquired during treatment as feedback to reduce errors. Total 122 cases of cervical cancer with stage IB2-IVA will be randomly enrolled. Concurrent external volumetric rotational intensity modulated radiotherapy and chemotherapy followed by image-guided adaptive brachytherapy is the treatment strategies of control group patients. Concurrent adaptive external volumetric rotational intensity modulated radiotherapy and chemotherapy followed by image-guided adaptive brachytherapy is the treatment strategies of experimental group patients. CT repositioning will be performed after 15fractions of external radiotherapy, then new target volume will be contoured and new radiotherapy plan will be formulated with the assistance of artificial intelligence program. New radiotherapy plan will be performed from the 17th fraction external radiotherapy. Information on side effects, survival, dosimetry, imaging, clinical features, and cost-effectiveness will be collected. The statistical analysis is as follows, First is the difference in grade 3 side effects between the two groups. Second is 2-year PFS and OS differences between the two groups. Third is relationship between dosimetric differences and prognosis. Fourth one is to analyze the prognostic and predictive factors of adaptive radiotherapy from the patient's clinical characteristics, Positron emission tomography-computed tomography(PET/CT), Magnetic Resonance Imaging(MRI) and other multimodal information. Fifth is cost-benefit analysis of Artificial Intelligence(AI).
This is a single arm, open-lable Phase I clinical trial. Eligible patients will have Histologically proven stage IB2-IVA cervical cancer. We hypothesize that Nab-paclitaxel in combination with cisplatin and radiotherapy may have anti-tumor activity in patients with cervical cancer. Nab-paclitaxel has not previously been combined with conventional RT-CT to treat cervical cancer.
This study will include patients with invasive cervical cancer that wish to keep their fertility as much as possible in the future after treatment. Patients who receive surgery alone may experience long-term side effects including infertility. The purpose of this research study is to determine whether giving neo-adjuvant chemotherapy prior to surgery can maintain fertility in patients with invasive cervical cancer. The neo-adjuvant chemotherapy will consist of a platinum-based chemotherapy drug cisplatin or carboplatin, with a chemotherapy drug called paclitaxel. These are common chemotherapy drugs used in the treatment of women with cervical cancers.
A lot of studies have demonstrated the prognostic value of post therapy 18F-FDG PET/CT in the management of uterine cervical cancer. Post therapy 18F-FDG PET/CT is usually requested by a lot of clinicians. Whereas 18F-FDG PET/CT is useful for prognosis in the follow-up, data are yet insufficient to clearly establish a formal recommendation. This prospective multicenter observational study will evaluate the interest of post therapy 18F-FDG PET/CT in clinical management (within 2 months of treatment) in patients with cervical cancer at an advanced stage. Main outcome : The therapeutic impact of post therapy 18F-FDG PET/CT (within 2 months after the end of therapy) will be evaluated on the complete results included MRI. Investigators will compare : - decision of clinicians without 18F-FDG PET/CT results - and decision of clinicians knowing entire results included results of 18F-FDG PET/CT.
The present study is proposed to compare a rapid fractionation schedule of 1 week compared to a protracted schedule of 6-8 weeks for palliation for locally advanced cervical cancer.
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.
Patients with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer,and will be treated with GLS-010.
