Phase II study of concurrent chemoradiotherapy with high-dose-rate intracavitary brachytherapy in patients with locally advanced uterine cervical cancer: efficacy and toxicity of a low cumulative radiation dose schedule.

Abstract：

OBJECTIVE:A multicenter phase II trial was conducted to assess the efficacy and toxicity of concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) with high-dose-rate intracavitary brachytherapy (HDR-ICBT) using a low cumulative prescribed dose schedule in patients with locally advanced uterine cervical cancer. METHODS:The Japanese Gynecologic Oncology Group (JGOG) study JGOG1066 enrolled patients with FIGO stages III-IVA uterine cervical cancer who had no para-aortic lymphadenopathy (>10 mm) assessed by CT. Patients received definitive radiotherapy (RT) consisting of external beam whole pelvic RT and HDR-ICBT. The cumulative linear quadratic equivalent dose (EQD2) was 62-65 Gy prescribed at point A. Cisplatin 40 mg/m(2) weekly was administered concurrently with RT for 5 courses. RESULTS:Of the 72 patients registered, 71 were eligible. With a median follow-up of 28 months, the 2-year progression-free survival rate and pelvic disease progression-free rate were 66% (95% CI, 54% to 76%) and 73% (95% CI, 61% to 82%), respectively. Progression-free survival decreased significantly with increased central tumor size (P=0.036). The 2-year cumulative late complication rates were 24% for all grades, 9% for grade 1, 12% for grade 2, 3% for grade 3, and 0 for grades 4/5. CONCLUSIONS:The JGOG1066 demonstrated that CCRT using HDR-ICBT with a low cumulative RT dose schedule achieved comparable outcome as those achieved with global dose schedules (EQD2=85 Gy) with a lower incidence of late toxicity for locally advanced uterine cervical cancer in a Japanese population.
