Reviewing outcomes after brachytherapy for women’s cancers
Part of Cancer, Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks back at medical records to understand results after brachytherapy (a form of cancer radiation delivered from inside or close to the tumor) in women with gynecologic cancer. It may help doctors improve future treatment decisions, but you would not have to receive an experimental treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman between 18 and 80 years old
- You have had brachytherapy in the past
- Your cancer was a gynecologic cancer (for example, cancers of the cervix, uterus, or ovaries)
- You agree to be included in this review of your records (no refusal)

This study tests image-guided internal radiation (brachytherapy) for certain gynecologic cancers. It may help deliver radiation more precisely by using scans done close to enrollment.
This study looks at how well current treatments work for cervical cancer. It focuses on people who have already had radiation therapy and are continuing with care, to see if the treatment is effective and to improve outcomes.
This study looks at whether women who receive internal radiation (brachytherapy) for cervical cancer may develop post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The goal is to understand emotional distress after treatment.
This study checks if doctors can better verify brachytherapy (a type of internal radiation) during treatment for gynecological or prostate cancer. It may help improve accuracy and outcomes for patients receiving this therapy.
This study looks at how well a type of internal radiation therapy called brachytherapy works for advanced cervical cancer. The treatment is given after chemotherapy and external radiation, and the study aims to see how effective and safe it is.
This trial compares different “fractionation” schedules (how often and how many treatments) of vaginal brachytherapy radiation given after surgery for certain early-stage endometrial cancer. It may help find a plan that works well while aiming to control side effects.
