Trial summary

The main purpose of the study is to describe changes in plasma HPV DNA levels in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer during radical radiochemotherapy (CRT) and to correlate changes with response to treatment. Monitoring of the response to treatment will also be assessed in FDG PET CT imaging. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: HPV Serum Level and FDG PET CT in Patients With Cervical Cancer Treated With Radical Radiochemotherapy (HPV-RICCO - HPV Relation in Cervical Cancer Outcomes)

The main purpose of the study is to describe changes in plasma HPV DNA levels in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer during radical radiochemotherapy (CRT) and to correlate changes with response to treatment. Monitoring of the response to treatment will also be assessed in FDG PET CT imaging.

Read the detailed description

Ninety-five per cent of cervical cancer cases are caused by persistent infections with carcinogenic HPVs. Locally advanced stage IB2 to IVA cervical cancers are treated with definitive chemoradiation therapy (CRT). Despite known clinical prognostic factors of poor treatment outcome such as advanced stage and positive nodal status, we still don't know predictors of relapse.

HPV status will be assessed in the neoplastic tissue and DNA from the blood serum of patients with cervical cancer will be isolated and analyzed by real-time PCR. Plasma HPV DNA would identify patients with residual disease after CRT due to persistent detectable HPV. This would earlier detect high risk patients who would benefit from adjuvant therapy.

While metabolic response in post - therapy FDG PET CT is predictive of survival, there is usually 3 months waiting period time needed to perform this imaging. This pilot study will provide preliminary estimates of the correlation between plasma HPV DNA level, PET finding and clinical outcome in polish cervical cancer patients.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • HPV serum level and FDG PET CT in patients with cervical cancer treated with radical radiochemotherapyDiagnostic test

    Locally advanced non-operable newly diagnosed FIGO stage IB-IVA cervical cancer patients planned for definitive radiochemotherapy will be accrued to study and will have:

    1. FDG PET Scan before treatment and 3 months after treatment
    2. Pre- treatment DNA from the neoplastic time preserved in the form of paraffin blocks to determine HPV status
    3. Blood sample to measure HPV DNA at time point baseline (before treatment), in the middle of treatment and at the end of definitive radiochemotherapy,
    4. [F-18] - FDG PET scan before treatment and 3 months post completion of radiochemotherapy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing HPV serum level and FDG PET CT in patients with cervical cancer treated with radical radiochemotherapy in people with Cervical Cancer, run by The Greater Poland Cancer Centre at 1 site in Poland.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 8 Jan 2024. 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 Poland. 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.

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?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

local control (time frame: 18 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 8 Jan 2024.
