Summary

Nearly all cervical cancers are caused by the human papilloma virus (HPV), which can be detected in cancer tissue by laboratory tests. There is evidence that the virus can also be detected from a blood sample to monitor the effects of treatment. Previous studies have shown that a special test called 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (PET-CT) at 3 months after treatment may predict survival in cervical cancer.

The purpose of this study is to see how well the FDG-PET Scan and blood tests for HPV can detect leftover cervical cancer cells after treatment. This study is not a particular form of treatment and patients will receive standard of care treatment.

[18-F]- FDG - PET

\[F-18\]-FDG Injection is an intravenous diagnostic radiopharmaceutical used for Positron Emission Tomography. While this is not the subject of investigation in this study, \[F-18\]-FDG will be used in the PET imaging assessment of study participants during their 3 month follow-up post-treatment.
