简要总结
The goal of this clinical trial is to test curcumin as an adjunct treatment in patients with cervical cancer receiving standard-of-care palliative radiation. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Is adding curcumin to standard-of-care palliative radiotherapy of cervical cancer patients feasible? Is conducting this study feasible?
- Does adding curcumin to standard-of-care palliative radiotherapy of cervical cancer patients improve therapeutic responses?
- Is adding curcumin to standard-of-care palliative radiotherapy of cervical cancer patients safe?
- How much curcumin is absorbed into the body and how long will it stay in the body?
Participants will:
i. Take 250 mg curcumin capsules four times per day for 4-6 weeks in addition to the prescribed palliative radiotherapy.
ii. Provide blood and urine samples for laboratory tests. iii. Provide blood samples to measure curcumin levels in their body. iv. Obtain CT-scan to measure their tumor response. v. Complete questioners to measure improvements to their quality of life, if any.

结局指标
主要结局
Treatment Fidelity Rate
时间窗: From initiation (Day 1) up to end of treatment over 4-6 weeks
Proportion of participants who received the study treatment as planned
Objective Response Rate (ORR)
时间窗: Time Frame: 13-17 weeks
Objective Response Rate is defined as proportion of participants having a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as defined by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1.
