Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

What aims does this clinical trial endeavor to meet?

"This research will measure the effectiveness of a non-radical surgical procedure by evaluating changes in bladder and bowel function scores, recurrence-free survival rates, overall quality of life as defined by Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Cervix (15 items) score, and maximum grade of treatment related adverse events graded according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0 or 5.0 depending on when the trial commenced. This assessment will take place over roughly three years following the surgery with Kaplan–Meier product limit estimates used to determine recurrence free survival while Cox regression will be employed to calculate hazard ratios controlling for known prog"
