Laparoscopic surgery for early cervical cancer
Part of Cancer, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial studies how well a less invasive laparoscopic surgery works for women with early-stage cervical cancer. If you have a small tumor and need a hysterectomy, this may be an option for you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with a common type of cervical cancer (squamous cell, adenocarcinoma, or adenosquamous).
- Your cancer is early stage (IA2, IB1, or IB2) and the tumor is smaller than 4 cm.
- You are scheduled for a radical or simple hysterectomy, based on your tumor size and depth.
- You are well enough for surgery (ECOG performance status 0 or 1) and have had a preoperative MRI.
- You are 18 or older, not pregnant, and have no other cancer in the last 5 years (except some low-risk skin or breast cancers).

This trial studies whether robot-assisted surgery can be used safely and effectively for certain early-stage cervical cancers. It may help by using a precise surgical approach to remove the cancer while matching standard care for eligible patients.
This trial studies whether a radical hysterectomy—performed either through laparoscopy or an open abdominal operation—works best for certain early-stage cervical cancers. It may help improve cancer control and guide how doctors choose the best surgical approach for your stage.
This trial studies whether a specific type of surgery (done through the abdomen or with keyhole surgery) is the right treatment for certain early cervical cancers. It aims to see how well these surgeries work when cancer hasn’t spread to lymph nodes.
This trial looks at two surgical approaches to remove the cervix in people with specific early-to-mid stage cervical cancer. It aims to see which approach is safer and/or works better for cancer control based on your cancer stage and scan results.
This trial compares robotic surgery to open (traditional) surgery for women with early-stage cervix cancer. The goal is to see which approach is safer and works better for cancer control and recovery.
This study tests whether a less invasive type of hysterectomy (keyhole surgery) works well for women with very early-stage cervical cancer. It aims to find a safer, faster recovery option for low-risk tumors.
