Shorter radiation therapy for endometrial and cervical cancer
Part of Cancer, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests a shorter, more targeted type of radiation therapy for people with endometrial or cervical cancer who have had surgery. It aims to reduce side effects by using daily scans to adjust the treatment plan.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with endometrial or cervical cancer that has been confirmed by a biopsy.
- You have had surgery to remove the main tumor.
- Your cancer stage is between IA and IVB (for endometrial) or IA to IIA (for cervical), and your doctor recommends radiation alone (no chemo) after surgery.
- You are 18 years or older.
- You are generally well enough to be up and about (performance status score of 60 or higher).
- You have not had radiation to the same area before, and you are not being treated for another active cancer.

This study tests a shorter, more intense course of radiation therapy after surgery for endometrial cancer. It aims to see if it is safe and works as well as standard radiation, while possibly reducing treatment time.
This trial tests a shorter, focused radiation treatment to the pelvis after surgery for cervical or uterine cancer. It aims to reduce the chance of cancer coming back in patients whose doctors recommend additional radiation therapy after their surgery.
This trial tests a shorter course of high-precision radiation therapy given at the same time as chemotherapy for cervical cancer that has not spread to distant organs. It aims to find if this approach is effective and safe for patients with locally advanced disease.
This trial tests a feasibility (“can it be done safely?”) approach that delivers radiation in a shorter schedule for some cervical cancer patients. It also uses weekly cisplatin chemotherapy and includes a radiation procedure called brachytherapy to improve treatment effectiveness.
This early-phase study tests whether giving a short course of radiation together with chemotherapy can help treat endometrial cancer after surgery. It aims to find a treatment plan that is effective while keeping side effects manageable.
This trial tests a shorter, personalized radiation schedule for cervical cancer. It uses daily CT scans to adjust the radiation beam for better targeting. It may mean fewer hospital visits and less damage to healthy tissue.
