Abstract

BACKGROUND

The Laparoscopic Approach to Cervical Cancer trial is the only randomized trial to date addressing the role of surgical approach in cervical cancer; however, this non-inferiority trial of minimally invasive surgery vs an open approach in patients undergoing radical hysterectomy for early-stage cervical cancer did not meet its primary end point of 4.5-year disease-free survival and was terminated early because of significantly worse disease-specific survival, overall survival, and locoregional recurrence in the minimally invasive surgery cohort.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE

Our trial compares 3-year disease-free survival after robotic-assisted or abdominal radical or simple (in select cases) hysterectomy in early-stage cervical cancer.

STUDY HYPOTHESIS

We hypothesize that disease-free survival is non-inferior after robotic-assisted vs abdominal radical or simple hysterectomy.

TRIAL DESIGN

This multi-center, randomized non-inferiority trial conducted through the Gynecologic Oncology Group has specified surgeon qualification criteria. It requires a pelvic magnetic resonance imaging scan in all patients before enrollment and will use 1:1 randomization to assign patients to robotic-assisted or abdominal hysterectomy. All surgeons must use specified tumor-containment techniques in both arms. It does not allow trans-cervical uterine manipulators.

MAJOR INCLUSION/EXCLUSION CRITERIA: Patients with early-stage (2018 International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stages IA2-IB2) cervical cancer. Histologic types are limited to squamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, or adenosquamous carcinoma. Pelvic magnetic resonance imaging must confirm a tumor that is 4 cm or less without definitive extra-cervical spread. A simple hysterectomy is allowed in select cases after trial study principal investigator review.

PRIMARY ENDPOINT

The primary end point is the 3-year disease-free survival between robotic-assisted or abdominal hysterectomy.

SAMPLE SIZE

The trial will randomly allocate 840 patients, with planned interim analysis for futility (oncologic safety) after we have randomly allocated 370 and 640 patients.
