Minimally Invasive Simple Hysterectomy in Low Risk Cervical Cancer (LASH)

May 11, 2024 updated by: Bizzarri Nicolò, Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli IRCCS
The rationale of the present study is to assess the safety of the minimally invasive surgery approach in patients meeting the SHAPE trial inclusion criteria.The SHAPE trial was designed to answer the clinical question of whether simple hysterectomy could be performed instead of radical hysterectomy in low-risk early stage cervical cancer but not the surgical approach. The favorable oncological outcome observed in SHAPE despite 75% of patients were treated with minimally invasive approach suggests that this approach may be safe. However, the trial was not designed to analyze oncological outcomes from surgical approach.

Detailed Description

The Laparoscopic Approach to Cervical Cancer (LACC) Trial showed that minimally invasive radical hysterectomy was associated with lower rates of disease-free survival and overall survival than open abdominal radical hysterectomy among women with early-stage cervical cancer. Since then, the standard of care in terms of surgical approach to radical hysterectomy has been considered the laparotomy. More recently, the SHAPE trial results were presented showing that in patients with low-risk cervical cancer (defined as FIGO 2018 stage IA2 and IB1 up to 2 cm, with limited stromal invasion: < 10 mm on LEEP/cone and < 50% depth on MRI) simple hysterectomy was not inferior to radical hysterectomy for what concerned pelvic recurrence, with less complications and better quality of life. However, SHAPE trial was not designed to assess the surgical approach.

The rationale of the present study is to assess the safety of the minimally invasive surgery approach in patients meeting the SHAPE trial inclusion criteria.
