Establishing a Tumor Registry for Patients With Neuroendocrine Carcinoma of the Cervix (NeCTuR)

September 10, 2026 updated by: M.D. Anderson Cancer Center
This study collects information and data on patients with neuroendocrine cervical cancer. Information from this study may be used to better understand the correlation between clinical data, such as patient characteristics, treatment, and disease outcomes, and overall patient outcomes.

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To collect, both prospectively and retrospectively, data on disease characterization, treatment, and outcomes for patients with neuroendocrine carcinoma of the uterine cervix.

II. To organize clinical information in order to support multifaceted queries of patient characteristics, treatment, and disease outcome data and to facilitate correlation of these characteristics with patient outcome.

III. To have a single data repository kept on a secure platform that will integrate clinical information and research findings and serve as an archive for future research.

OUTLINE:

Patients' medical records are reviewed retrospectively and prospectively. All prospective patients will be contacted via email, telephone, or U.S. Mail on case by case basis for up to 10 years to check status of disease and any further treatment received. Project staff can also access the patient's M. D. Anderson Epic medical record for updates. Request for additional clinic and treatment notes will be submitted to external medical institutions listed in the physician information form in order to access updated notes for non- M. D. Anderson patients

Observational (medical chart review)
Patients' medical records are reviewed retrospectively and prospectively. All prospective patients will be contacted via email, telephone, or U.S. Mail on case by case basis for up to 10 years to check status of disease and any further treatment received. Project staff can also access the patient's M. D. Anderson Epic medical record for updates. Request for additional clinic and treatment notes will be submitted to external medical institutions listed in the physician information form in order to access updated notes for non- M. D.
