Summary

Concurrent chemoradiation (CCRT) is the standard therapy for locally advanced cervical cancer.

However, the most effective chemotherapy regimen is controversial. Weekly cisplatin, hydroxyurea + cisplatin, 5-FU + cisplatin are tested in clinical trials.

Weekly cisplatin needs frequent hospital visits and had a poor compliance profile in korea.

Combination chemotherapy regimens had more adverse effects than weekly cisplatin without improving outcomes.

We conducted a retrospective analysis comparing weekly cisplatin with cisplatin every 3 weeks and observed favorable outcome for cisplatin every 3 weeks regimen (still not published).

Therefore, we designed a phase 2 trial evaluating the efficacy and feasibility of CCRT with cisplatin every 3 weeks.
