简要总结
Vulvar cancer patients with SN-metastasis > 2mm will receive chemoradiation instead of an inguinofemoral lymphadenectomy.
详细描述
Rationale:
Standard treatment of early stage vulvar cancer is a wide local excision of the primary tumor combined with the sentinel node (SN) procedure for the groins. An inguinofemoral lymphadenectomy (IFL) is only indicated in case of a positive SN. An IFL is associated with major morbidity, e.g. wound healing problems, lymphoceles, lymphedema of the legs and recurrent infections. GROINSS-V II investigated whether radiotherapy would be a safe alternative for IFL in case of SN metastasis. The results for radiotherapy in the group with metastasis ≤ 2mm are promising. This study also showed that for metastasis > 2mm, only radiotherapy was not efficient. The efficacy of treatment can be increased by adding chemotherapy or giving a higher dose of radiotherapy. GROINSS-V III will investigate this regimen.
Objective:
The primary objective of this study is to investigate the safety of replacing inguinofemoral lymphadenectomy by chemoradiation in early stage vulvar cancer patients with a macrometastasis (>2mm) and/or extracapsular extension in the SN. The secondary objective is to evaluate the short and long-term morbidity associated with the SN procedure and chemoradiation.
Study design: Phase II treatment trial, with stopping rules for the incidence of groin recurrences.

干预措施: Radiotherapy combined with cisplatin (Radiation)
