Combined chemotherapy and radiation for advanced cervical cancer
Part of Cancer, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial is testing a combination of standard chemotherapy and radiation delivered to the pelvis, followed by an internal radiation treatment guided by CT scans. The goal is to improve treatment for locally advanced cervical cancer while potentially reducing side effects.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 18 and 75 years old.
- You must have cervical cancer that hasn't spread to distant organs (stages IB3 to IV).
- You should not have had prior radiation to the abdomen or pelvis.
- You need to be in generally good health (able to perform daily activities, with adequate heart, blood, kidney, and liver function).
- You must not be pregnant or breastfeeding.

This trial tests whether a combination of chemotherapy and immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) before surgery works better than standard chemoradiation for locally advanced cervical cancer. It may help shrink tumors more effectively.
This trial tests a type of radiation that adapts to your body changes during treatment for cervical cancer. It aims to improve accuracy and reduce side effects.
This trial tests a new way of delivering radiation therapy (brachytherapy) combined with chemotherapy for advanced cervical cancer. The goal is to see if a faster, more intense radiation schedule is safe and effective.
This study tests whether adding immunotherapy to chemotherapy, then giving chemotherapy together with radiation, works better for advanced cervical cancer. It aims to improve cancer control and help people live longer, without major safety issues.
This trial tests a shorter course of radiation combined with chemotherapy and brachytherapy (internal radiation) for cervical cancer that has not spread widely. It aims to make treatment more efficient while still being effective.
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.
