Spatially fractionated radiation for advanced cervical cancer
Part of Cancer, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests a special radiation technique for cervical cancer that is locally advanced (spread near the cervix but not far away). The technique aims to better target the tumor and improve treatment effectiveness.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have cervical cancer confirmed by biopsy, specifically squamous cell, adenocarcinoma, or adenosquamous types.
- Your cancer is at stage IIB to IVA and the main tumor is at least 4 cm across.
- You are generally able to carry out daily activities (performance status 0–2).
- You plan to receive chemotherapy and radiation together (chemoradiotherapy).

This trial tests a special type of radiation that is given in small, spaced-out beams to treat gynecologic cancers (like cervical or uterine cancer). It is for patients who cannot get standard internal radiation (brachytherapy) because of unusual anatomy, large tumors, a narrow vagina, or anesthesia risks.
This trial tests a new way of giving radiation therapy for cervical cancer that uses higher doses in fewer treatments. Researchers want to see if this faster approach works as well as standard radiation while reducing side effects and treatment time.
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 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 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 trial tests a type of advanced radiation called proton therapy that targets a larger area of the pelvis and abdomen for cervical cancer. It may be an option if your cancer has spread to nearby lymph nodes and you haven't had radiation before.
