Camera surgery to find hidden cancer spread in advanced cervical cancer
Part of Cancer, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study checks if cancer has spread to the lining of the belly (peritoneum) using a small camera surgery (laparoscopy) in people with advanced cervical cancer. If found, it helps guide the right treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have cervical cancer that is at a locally advanced stage (Stage T3/T4, IB3, IIA2-IVA, or IIIC2 with lymph node spread).
- You are older than 18 years.
- You have not had other cancers before this one.
- You are not pregnant and there is no reason you cannot have a laparoscopic procedure.
- This is your first diagnosis of cervical cancer (it has not come back).

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 studies whether a special MRI scan can better predict whether early cervical cancer has spread into tiny lymph and blood vessels (lymphovascular space invasion) before surgery. If it works, it may help doctors plan the best treatment after surgery.
This trial tests a new way to look at lymph nodes during surgery for gynecologic cancers. It may help doctors decide immediately if cancer has spread to the lymph nodes, which could guide treatment decisions during the same operation.
This trial studies whether removing lymph nodes during surgery helps people with stage IIICr cervical cancer. It looks at outcomes and may help guide better treatment for lymph node spread.
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 study is collecting videos from a type of minimally invasive surgery called sentinel lymph node dissection for endometrial or cervical cancer. The goal is to use deep learning (a type of artificial intelligence) to help surgeons identify important structures and any spread of cancer during the procedure, making the surgery safer and more effective.
