Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy to the Pelvis With or Without Chemotherapy in Treating Patients With Endometrial Cancer or Cervical Cancer That Has Been Removed By Surgery

Phase 2

Conditions
Endometrial Cancer
Cervical Cancer
Interventions
Radiation: intensity-modulated radiation therapy
Registration Number
NCT00331760
Lead Sponsor
Radiation Therapy Oncology Group
Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Specialized radiation therapy (RT), such as intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), that delivers a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving intensity-modulated radiation therapy to the pelvis with or without chemotherapy after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well intensity-modulated radiation therapy to the pelvis with or without chemotherapy works in treating patients with endometrial cancer or cervical cancer that has been removed by surgery.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

* Determine the transportability of intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) to a multi-institutional setting in patients with resected endometrial or cervical cancer.

* Compare the efficacy, in terms of reducing short-term bowel injury, of IMRT versus standard treatments.

* Assess adverse events related to this regimen.

* Estimate the rates of local-regional control, distant metastasis, and disease-free and overall survival.

* Evaluate chemotherapy compliance with this regimen for patients with cervical carcinoma.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to diagnosis (cervical vs endometrial cancer).

All patients undergo intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) once a day, 5 days a week, for 5.5 weeks. Patients with cervical cancer also receive cisplatin IV over 30-60 minutes on day 1 or 2. Treatment with cisplatin repeats every 7 days for 5 courses (during radiotherapy) in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed at 6 weeks post-IMRT and then every 3 months for 2 years, every 6 months for years 3-5, and then annually for at least 3 years.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 92 patients will be accrued for this study.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Reproducibility of Radiation Technique (Number of Unacceptable Deviations in Central IMRT Quality Assurance Review)IMRT planning and dosing data is centrally reviewed for quality assurance after treatment delivery.

Central quality assurance review of the IMRT planning and dosing categorized unacceptable deviations (UD) from protocol compliance with the delineation of planning target volume for the vagina and pelvic lymph nodes. Each arm of this study is considered independently, they are not compared to each other. The study was designed such that, for each arm, 5 or more of 42 subjects scored as unacceptable would determine the respective treatment technique as not reproducible. For each arm this design provides 90% power with a 0.05 type I error to reject the null hypothesis that the true probability of concluding the given technique to be reproducible is \<= 80%. The alternative hypothesis is that the true probability is \>= 95%.

For \[vagina / pelvic lymph nodes\]: UD is defined as: The 90% isodose surface covers \< 95% of \[internal target volume (ITV)/ planned target volume (PTV)\] 50.4 or \> 5% of the \[ITV/PTV\] 50.4 receives over 115%.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Rate of Distant Metastases at Five YearsFrom registration to five years

Distant Metastases failure time is defined as time from registration to date of distant disease, death without distant metastases (competing risk), or last known follow-up (censored) and is estimated by the cumulative incidence method. Para-aortic nodal disease is considered to be distant disease for a cervical primary, but not for an endometrial primary.

Percentage of Patients With Grade 2+ Bowel Adverse EventsFrom the start of treatment to 90 days.

Bowel adverse events are defined as any of the following adverse events: diarrhea; enteritis; fistula; ileus:gastrointestinal (GI); incontinence:anal; necrosis:GI; obstruction:GI; perforation:GI; proctitis; stricture/stenosis (including anastomotic):GI. Adverse events are graded using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v3.0. Grade refers to the severity of the adverse event (AE). The CTCAE v3.0 assigns Grades 1 through 5 with unique clinical descriptions of severity for each AE based on this general guideline: Grade 1 Mild, Grade 2 Moderate, Grade 3 Severe, Grade 4 Life-threatening or disabling, Grade 5 Death related to adverse event.

Percentage of Patients With Any Grade 3+ Treatment-related Adverse EventsFrom start of treatment to the end of follow-up. Maximum follow-up at time of analysis was 10.2 years for endometrium cancer patients and 9.5 years for cervical cancer patients.

Adverse events were graded using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v3.0. Grade refers to the severity of the adverse event (AE). The CTCAE v3.0 assigns Grades 1 through 5 with unique clinical descriptions of severity for each AE based on this general guideline: Grade 1 Mild, Grade 2 Moderate, Grade 3 Severe, Grade 4 Life-threatening or disabling, Grade 5 Death related to AE.

Rate of Local-regional Failure at Five YearsFrom registration to five years.

Local-regional failure time is defined as time from registration to date of local-regional failure (any failure in the treatment field, which will be the pelvis only), death without local-regional failure (competing risk), or last known follow-up (censored). Local-regional failure rates are estimated by the cumulative incidence method.

Rate of Overall Survival at Five YearsFrom randomization to five years

Overall survival time is defined as time from randomization to the date of death from any cause and is estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. Patients last known to be alive are censored at the date of last contact.

Percentage of Patients With Any Late Grade 3+ Treatment-related Adverse EventsFrom 91 days after start of study treatment to the end of follow-up. Maximum follow-up at time of analysis was 10.2 years for endometrium cancer patients and 9.5 years for cervical cancer patients.

Adverse events were graded using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v3.0. Grade refers to the severity of the AE. The CTCAE v3.0 assigns Grades 1 through 5 with unique clinical descriptions of severity for each adverse events (AE) based on this general guideline: Grade 1 Mild, Grade 2 Moderate, Grade 3 Severe, Grade 4 Life-threatening or disabling, Grade 5 Death related to AE. Late is defined as more than 90 days after the start of radiation therapy.

Percentage of Cervical Carcinoma Patients That Were Chemotherapy CompliantFrom start to end of chemotherapy, approximately five weeks from registration.

Chemotherapy treatment was centrally reviewed for quality assurance and compliance once complete chemotherapy treatment data was received from sites.

Rate of Disease-free Survival at Five YearsFrom registration five years

Disease-free survival time is defined as time from registration to date of failure (any tumor recurrence, development of distant metastases or death from any cause) and is estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. Patients last known to be alive without failure are censored at the date of last contact.
