ARTIA-Cervix Trial Summary
This trial is designed to show that a new type of radiation therapy for cervical cancer will result in less severe gastrointestinal side effects than a standard radiation therapy.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with newly diagnosed advanced cervical cancer (stages IB2-IVA) who haven't had a hysterectomy or previous cancer treatments. Participants must be planning concurrent chemo and radiation, have good performance status, no severe allergies to cisplatin, and normal organ/marrow function. They should not be pregnant/breastfeeding and must agree to use birth control.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests Varian Ethos Adaptive Radiation Therapy in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer. It aims to show that this individualized treatment can reduce acute gastrointestinal side effects compared to traditional non-adaptive IMRT by week 5 of external beam radiotherapy.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While the trial focuses on reducing gastrointestinal toxicity, potential side effects may include typical reactions from radiation therapy such as skin irritation, fatigue, nausea, diarrhea, and possibly blood count changes due to concurrent chemotherapy.
