Phase I Pilot Study to Evaluate the Prognostic Value of Perfusion CT for Primary Cervical Cancer

October 29, 2018 updated by: Stanford University
The investigators hope to learn whether perfusion CT is a useful way to assess primary cervical tumor microenvironment and whether there is a relationship between pretreatment perfusion CT measurements and primary cervical tumor size, lymph node involvement (as assessed by standard of care pretreatment fludeoxyglucose Positron emission tomography/CT (FDG-PET/CT)), and treatment response (as assessed by standard of care 3-month post-therapy FDG-PET/CT).

Study Population

Approximately 12-15 cervical cancer patients are referred for radiation each year.

Description

Inclusion criteria:

  • >18 years old
  • with biopsy-proven squamous, adenocarcinoma or adenosquamous cervical cancer
  • no history of prior pelvic radiation and should be able to receive chemoradiation
  • non-pregnant women who have not previously undergone a hysterectomy, as that would have removed the cervix.
  • able to give informed consent

Exclusion criteria:

  • Subjects whose tumors are not FDG avid on the pre-therapy PET.
  • Allergy or inability to receive iodinated CT contrast

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Measure perfusion in primary cervical tumors using perfusion CT.
Time Frame: 3-6 months
Treatment response will be assessed using a post-treatment FDG-PET/CT to evaluate for complete response, persistent disease or new disease. The association between pre-treatment perfusion CT parameters and response on the post-treatment FDG-PET/CT will be analyzed.
3-6 months
