It aims to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
ShanghaiAges 18–80 - NCT05581121RecruitingPhase 3
Lymph node removal plus standard treatment for cervical cancer
This Phase 3 trial tests whether removing specific lymph nodes in the lower pelvis and around the aorta, along with standard curative treatment, improves outcomes for people with locally advanced cervical cancer. It is mainly aimed at patients whose scans show pelvic lymph nodes involved but not clearly cancer in the para-aortic nodes.

- Are there clinical trials for advanced cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,224 recruiting advanced cancer studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a advanced cancer trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a advanced cancer trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
