Inclusion Criteria

Patients are eligible for this study in case they meet the following inclusion
criteria:

• Patients must have histologically confirmed invasive cervical cancer with
adenocarcinoma, adenosquamous or squamous histology and FIGO 2018 IB2 measuring
>2cm to <=4cm by magnetic radiological imaging (MRI). Lymphovascular space
invasion (LVSI) is allowed.
• Patients must be >=18 years of age, and < 40 years of age
• Patients must be premenopausal and wish to preserve fertility
• At time of registration, patient may not have had any prior therapy to treat
their cancer lesion, patients with diagnostic cone or LEEP are allowed
• Eastern Cooperative Group (ECOG) performance status <= 2 (Karnofsky >=60%, see
Appendix C).
No evidence of active uncontrolled infection (patients on antibiotics are
eligible).
Patient must have disease that is measurable per RECIST 1.1.
• Ability to understand and willing to sign a written informed consent document.
• Patients must agree to use effective contraceptive methods prior to study
entry, during study participation, and for at least one year after the FSS
procedure.

Exclusion Criteria

Exclusion criteria for this study:
• Patients who have had chemotherapy or radiotherapy or surgery for their
cancer. Patients with diagnostic cone or LEEP are allowed
• Patients who are receiving any other investigational agents.
• Patients with other cancers requiring ongoing treatment. Patients with
malignancies unrelated to their cervical cancer can be included if they have
not required treatment for 2 years. Patient with baso cellular skin cancer are
allowed.
• Patients with known / evidence of brain metastases are excluded from
participation in this clinical trial.
• History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or
biologic composition to paclitaxel, carboplatin, or cisplatin or other agents
used in study.
• Uncontrolled inter-current illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or
active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina
pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that
would limit compliance with study requirements.
• Patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding
• Any other condition that would, in the Investigator*s judgment,
contraindicate the patient*s participation in the clinical study due to safety
concerns or compliance with clinical study procedures, e.g.,
infection/inflammation, intestinal obstruction, unable to swallow medication,
social/ psychological issues.
