MRI-guided chemoradiation for cervical cancer
Part of Cancer, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial uses MRI scans during chemoradiation to improve treatment accuracy for cervical cancer. It may help patients who need standard chemoradiation plus brachytherapy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have cervical cancer that is a common type (squamous cell, adenocarcinoma, or adeno-squamous cell).
- Your cancer is stage IB, IIA, IIB, IIIA, IIIB, or IIIC1 (not spread too far).
- Your doctor has discussed that chemoradiation and brachytherapy are right for you.
- You are feeling well enough to carry on daily activities (Karnofsky score 70% or higher).
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You can have MRI scans with contrast dye (no pacemaker, metal implants, or severe claustrophobia).

This feasibility study tests whether an MRI-guided radiation approach can be used safely and practically for people with certain stages of cervical cancer. It’s meant to help doctors plan radiation more accurately, while checking whether the treatment process works well.
This study looks at MRI scans from people with cervical cancer to predict how well they might do with radiotherapy. It aims to help doctors better tailor treatments and improve survival.
This study tests a targeted radiation “boost” delivered using an MRI-guided machine for certain gynecologic cancers when the usual treatment (brachytherapy) can’t be done. It may help improve control of the cancer while still aiming for cure.
This trial tests a more precise way to deliver radiation for locally advanced cervical cancer using MRI guidance during treatment, along with chemotherapy. It may help shrink tumors more effectively while aiming to reduce side effects by targeting the right areas.
This trial tests a new way of giving radiation therapy for rectal cancer, using MRI scans to aim the radiation more precisely. It's for people who need chemotherapy and radiation before surgery, and it aims to make treatment more effective while reducing side effects.
This trial studies whether using CT scans to plan radiation treatment (brachytherapy) is as good as using MRI scans, for cervical cancer. If you join, you may receive standard radiation and chemotherapy, and the imaging method will be chosen randomly.
