E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The main objective of the trial is to evaluate if the weekly induction chemotherapy followed by standard chemoradiation can be a concrete benefit in terms of overall survival in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer. |
L'obbiettivo principale dello Studio è quello di valutare se la chemioterapia di induzione seguita dalla chemio-radioterapia standard possa essere di concreto beneficio in termini di sopravviveza globale per le pazienti affette dal tumore della cervice uterina localmente avanzato |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
The secondary objectives are: -Progression free survival -Adverse events -Quality of life -Patterns of relapse |

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
The primary end point is to evaluate Overall Survival |
L'end point primario è valutare la sopravvivenza globale (OS) |
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
Overall Survival will be evaluated from the date of randomisation until the date of death from any cause |
La sopravvivenza globale sarà valutata dalla data di randomizzazione fino alla data di morte per qualsiasi causa |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
Secondary end points are: -Progression free survival -Adverse events -Quality of life -Patterns of relapse |
Gli end points secondari sono: - Sopravvivenza libera da progressione (Progression free survival) - Valutazione della safety dei trattamenti - Qualità di vita - Patterns di recidiva |
|
E.5.2.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
Progression free survival will be evaluated from the date of randomisation until the date of first progression or death, whichever occurs first. Adverse events will be collected weekly during treatment, 4 weeks post treatment, 3 monthly for 2 years and 6 monthly for 3 years. Quality of life will be collected during treatment and at follow-up visits as outlined above. Patterns of relapse (local and/or systemic) will be assessed during follow-up from the date of randomisation until the date of first relapse. |
La sopravvivenza libera da progressione sarà valutata dalla data di randomizzazione fino alla data della prima progressione o morte, a seconda di quale si verifica prima. Gli eventi avversi saranno raccolti ogni settimana durante il trattamento, 4 settimane dopo il trattamento, 3 mese per 2 anni e 6 mesi per 3 anni. Saranno raccolte durante il trattamento e durante le visite di follow-up, informazioni sulla Qualità di Vita come descritto sopra. I patterns di recidiva (locali e / o sistemici) verranno valutati durante il follow-up a partire dalla data di randomizzazione fino alla data della prima ricaduta |
