About this study

Official title: Epidemiological Landscape of Cervical Cancer in Latin America .

A portrait of clinical and epidemiological aspects of cervical cancer in Latin America is required to understand the high frequency of cervical cancer despite the existence of effective preventive tools. A better understanding of the current situation of this scenario will provide a valuable groundwork for the development of national and cooperative programs to improve cervical cancer prevention and treatment.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. - Summarize the histologic subtype

    Summarize the histologic subtype, assessed by the anatomopathological assay of the tumor sample and the stage at diagnosis, assessed by FIGO stage (International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) staging of cancer of the cervix uteri - 2018), using gynecological exam. Image studies and TNM stage (AJCC 8th edition) will also be used to assess stage at diagnosis when available.

    Measured: January of 2028

Timeline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Uterine Cervical Neoplasms, run by Latin American Cooperative Oncology Group at 12 sites in 4 countries.

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 7 inclusion and 3 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Aug 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites in Brazil, Argentina, Dominican Republic, Peru. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

- Summarize the histologic subtype (time frame: January of 2028). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04947605, which also lists 8 linked publications.

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 27 Aug 2026; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
