A Prospective Study on the Prediction Model of Para-aortic Lymph Node Metastasis

October 5, 2023 updated by: Dongling Zou, Chongqing University Cancer Hospital

A Prospective Study on the Application of Para-aortic Lymph Node Metastasis Prediction Model in Locally Advanced Cervical Cancer and Its Effect on Prognosis

The goal of this prospective single-arm trial is to investigate the accuracy and feasibility of the para-aortic lymph node metastasis prediction model in locally advanced cervical cancer, as well as its impact on patients' prognosis. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • Is the para-aortic lymph node metastasis prediction model accurate and feasible?
  • Whether the para-aortic lymph node metastasis prediction model can affect the prognosis of patients.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The accuracy of the prediction model
Time Frame: 2 years
The performance of the model was assessed with respect to discrimination which was measured by the concordance index and calibration which was assessed by the calibration curve, Hosmer-Lemeshow test and Brier score. The investigators will calculate respectively the sensitivity and 95% confidence interval (CI), specificity and 95% CI, positive likelihood ratios (LR+) and 95% CI, negative likelihood ratios (LR-) and 95% CI, and the Kappa value.
2 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Measure Description
Time Frame
PFS
Time Frame: 3 years
Progression-free Survival
3 years
LRR
Time Frame: 1 year
The local recurrence rate of para-aortic lymphatic drainage area
1 year
LRR
Time Frame: 2 year
The local recurrence rate of para-aortic lymphatic drainage area
