Daily Adaptive Radiation Therapy an Individualized Approach for Carcinoma of the Cervix (NCT05197881)

Daily Adaptive External Beam Radiation Therapy in the Treatment of Carcinoma of the Cervix: A Prospective Trial of an Individualized Approach for Intestinal Toxicity Reduction (ARTIA-Cervix)

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic โš™๏ธ Medical Device Protocol Sponsor: Varian, a Siemens Healthineers Company

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

This is a single-arm, prospective, multi-center clinical trial designed to demonstrate that adaptive radiotherapy for locally advanced cervical cancer will translate into a decreased rate of acute gastrointestinal toxicity compared with the historically reported rate for non-adaptive intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). The timepoint for this assessment will be at week 5 of external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) and will use the Patient-Reported Outcomes version of the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (PRO-CTCAE).
