- Registration Number
- NCT00012012
- Lead Sponsor
- Radiation Therapy Oncology Group
- Brief Summary
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Combining radiation therapy with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells. Drugs such as amifostine may protect normal cells from the side effects of radiati...
- Detailed Description
OBJECTIVES:
* Determine the feasibility and tolerability of external beam radiotherapy, brachytherapy, and cisplatin in patients with para-aortic or high common iliac lymph node-positive carcinoma of the uterine cervix.
* Determine the feasibility and tolerability of this regimen with the addition of amifostine in these patients.

Group Intervention Description Radiation therapy plus cisplatin External beam radiation therapy Patients receive extended field external beam radiation therapy (RT) to the para-aortic region and pelvis, intracavitary brachytherapy with concurrent weekly cisplatin. Radiation therapy plus cisplatin and amifostine Amifostine trihydrate Patients receive extended field external beam radiation therapy (RT) to the para-aortic region and pelvis, intracavitary brachytherapy with concurrent weekly cisplatin and amifostine trihydrate. Radiation therapy plus cisplatin and amifostine Intracavitary brachytherapy Patients receive extended field external beam radiation therapy (RT) to the para-aortic region and pelvis, intracavitary brachytherapy with concurrent weekly cisplatin and amifostine trihydrate.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Rate of Acute Grade 3/4 Toxicity (Excluding Grade 3 Leukopenia) From start of treatment to 90 days To determine the feasibility and tolerance of extended-field external radiotherapy to the pelvis and para-aortic region and intracavitary irradiation combined with weekly cisplatin using the rate of acute grade 3/4 toxicity rate (excluding grade 3 leukopenia). The first part of this study was designed to determine the acute grade 3/4 toxicity rate (excluding...
Number of Patients With Acute Grade 3/4 Toxicity (Excluding Grade 3 Leukopenia) From start of treatment to 90 days The second part of this study (second arm) was designed to detect a 40% relative reduction (absolute from 77% to 46%) in the acute grade 3/4 toxicity (excluding grade 3 leukopenia) rate, with the addition of amifostine. A one-sided alpha of 0.05 and 80% power required 16 evaluable patients to detect the hypothesized difference. If ≤ 8 had the toxicity, it wo...
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Distant Metastases From registration to date of distant mets or last follow-up. Analysis occurs after all patients have been potentially followed for 2 years. Pelvic Tumor Control From registration to date of pelvic tumor failure or last follow-up. Analysis occurs after all patients have been potentially followed for 2 years.
