Filter by:The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and complication of the treatment of pelvic external combined with 252-Cf neutron intracavitary radiotherapy with or without platinum in local advanced cervical cancer patients in the short and long term.
This study aims at creating video-based tutorials for developing skills in performing cervical cancer screening using VIA for the Auxillary Nurse Midwives (ANMs), Accredited Social Health Activists (ASHAs) and Primary Health Workers (PHWs). Cervical cancer screening is mainly done by the following three methods: Visual inspection with acetic acid (VIA), Cervical Smear Cytology (PAP) and HPV DNA test. VIA is a low cost, low resource cervical cancer screening method and especially useful for low middle income countries (LMICs) like India. We propose to develop video-based tutorials, such that the ANMs/ASHAs/PHWs could be trained in performing and interpreting VIA with the use of this tutorial. The ANMs/ASHAs/PHWs have important roles in delivering health in rural/ semi urban areas and they will be trained using this tutorial. The video-based tutorials will be made according to the 'Spoken Tutorials' methodology, developed at IIT Bombay. Video-based Tutorials has given skills based training to over 2 lakh students in the past four years on IT based topics. The tutorials are made available online free of cost. They are designed to be used without the need of an expert being physically present.
The purpose of this phase II trial is to determine the feasibility and efficacy of nimotuzumab injection combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy for initially inoperable locally advanced cervical cancer.
The standard treatment of local advanced cervical cancer is concurrent chemoradiotherapy. The 3 year disease free survival was about 50-70%. The distant metastasis is the main cause of failure in local advanced cervical cancer treated with 3-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) or intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT). The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and tolerance of concurrent and adjuvant chemotherapy with cisplatin and docetaxel for local advanced cervical cancer. It was expected that the 3 year disease free survival would be increased by 10% with this new treatment schedule.
The diagnostic value of sentinel lymph node biopsy in early-stage cervical cancer has been well studied. However, there were no randomized controlled study on comparing the long-term outcomes of sentinel lymph node biopsy and conventional procedure. The investigators perform a phase III, randomized controlled trial to determine whether pelvic lymphadenectomy can be replaced by sentinel lymph node biopsy in surgical treatment for patients with early-stage cervical cancer.
In this study, participants with multiple types of advanced (unresectable and/or metastatic) solid tumors who have progressed on standard of care therapy will be treated with pembrolizumab (MK-3475).
Patients with cervical cancer staging IB1-IIA2 desiring keeping their fertility function will be recruited. Before treatment, MRI scanning will be used to exclude retroperitoneal lymph node metastasis, involvement of lower part of uterus and endometrial carcinoma.If there is no macroscopic tumor and no obvious disease in MRI,simple trachelectomy (ST) + sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) / retroperitoneal lymph node dissection(RPLND) will be performed. Otherwise,two to three cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) will be administrated and then different fertility-sparing surgery(conization,ST or radical trachelectomy(RT) + SLNB/RPLND) will be employed depending on the tumor size.
The purpose of this prospective study is to evaluate whether DNA methylation can be applied in cervical cancer screening.
Papanicolaou (Pap) triage, with high specificity, has been recommended for primary Human papillomavirus (HPV) testing but is flawed by poor sensitivity and cytologist dependence. the investigators evaluated the potential role of HPV Integration detection in cervical exfoliated cells in HPV-positive women from a clinic-based population.
The primary objective is to determine the sensitivity and specificity of the HPV Integration-based cervical screening for detection of high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), using colposcopic inspection as the reference method. Lesions will be confirmed as malignant or CIN by colposcopic inspection and histopathologic examination.
