Unverified Answer

What is the primary objective of this clinical trial?

"The primary purpose of this trial, which will be conducted over Baseline to week 3 of pelvic radiotherapy, is to assess the efficacy of hypofractionated radiotherapy. Auxiliary objectives include assessing financial toxicity with a Comprehensive Score for Financial Toxicity, making use of Decision Regret Scale and looking at changes in Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Cervix (all using 90% confidence intervals)." - Anonymous Online Contributor
