NCT04770090

Brief Summary

Cervical cancer is a rare pathology. Recent studies showed that the risk of recurrence is higher for patients treated by coelioscopy in comparison with laparotomy. It could be explained by the spread of circulating tumor cells (CTC) due to tumor mobilization during different steps of the surgery. The primary goal is to evaluate the spread of CTC during surgery on peripheral blood samples. The secondary outcome is to evaluation the disease-free survival at 3 and 5 years postoperatively. 20 patients with early stage cervical (IA1 to IB2) eligible to coelioscopic stadification and laparoscopic surgery will be included.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of circulating tumor cell detected after cervical cancer surgery.

    Detection of the presence of at least one circulating tumor cell from blood samples taken during surgery (one CTC per 7.5mL of blood or increase of at least one CTC if CTC is present pre-operatively)

    Within 48 hours after surgery.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Evaluation of disease-free survival

    Two points at the 3rd and 5th years

Study Arms (1)

Early stage cervical cancer

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients with cervical cancer eligible for surgery, stage IA1 to IB2
