About this study

Official title: A Phase III Randomized Trial Between 5 Day 3 Weekly and Weekly Cisplatin Based Chemotherapy for Patients With Locally Advanced Cervical Cancer

The primary aim of this research protocol is to compare if there is a difference in progression free survival between weekly versus 5-day 3 weekly cisplatin based chemotherapy regimen in women with locally advanced cervical cancer. The secondary aims are to compare quality of life assessment of patients and their carers as well as toxicity profiles both acute and late.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Cisplatin in people with Locally Advanced Cervical Cancer, run by National University Hospital, Singapore at 1 site in Singapore.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 14 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 May 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Singapore. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Johann Tang (677204870, Johann_Tang@mail.nhg.com.sg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The primary aim of this research protocol is to compare if there is a difference in progression free survival between weekly versus 5-day 3 weekly cisplatin based chemotherapy regimen in women with locally advanced cervical cancer.. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 May 2008; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 31 Oct 2026.
