Brief Summary

Adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) plays an important role in reducing the risks of local recurrence after surgery in uterine cancers. Standard adjuvant pelvic radiation treatment targets the pelvic lymph nodes, the post-operative bed, and the upper vagina and is typically treated with intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) which has been shown to improve patient reported gastrointestinal (GI) and genitourinary (GU) toxicities. Although pelvic radiation has been shown to be effective at decreasing locoregional recurrences, patient quality of life and experience can be significantly impacted as pelvic RT comprises of daily radiation for 25 daily treatments, which can be a substantial burden on patients with this disease. Hypofractionated radiotherapy to a dose of 30 Gy in 5 fractions (6 Gy given every other day) for adjuvant radiation treatment in uterine cancer is hypothesized to result in similar rates of acute gastrointestinal toxicities as conventional fractionated radiation.

Study Arms (2)

Conventional Fractionation Pelvic Radiation

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients randomized to the conventional fractionation arm will be treated with intensity-modulated or volumetric arc therapy technique as per standard protocol.

Radiation: Conventional Fractionation

Stereotactic Hypofractionated Radiation

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients randomized to hypofractionation will be treated the stereotactic hypofractionated technique.

Radiation: Hypofractionation

Interventions

Dose prescribed is 45 Gy in 25 fractions (1.8 Gy per fraction) delivered daily over 5 weeks.

Conventional Fractionation Pelvic Radiation

Dose prescribed is 30 Gy in 5 fractions (6 Gy per fraction) delivered every other day over 11 days. There will be a minimum of 36 hours and maximum of 96 hours between fractions. The entire course of treatment should be completed within no less than 10 days.

Stereotactic Hypofractionated Radiation

Eligibility Criteria

You may qualify if:

  • Patient with histologically confirmed endometrial adenocarcinoma, serous or clear cell carcinoma.
  • Patient is a candidate for adjuvant pelvic radiation for uterine cancer (+/- vault brachytherapy), meeting one of the following conditions:
  • High grade histology (including serous and clear cell) OR Outer-half myometrial invasion and International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) grade 1-2 OR FIGO stage II - III.
  • Patients who are to receive adjuvant systemic therapy sequentially in addition to pelvic radiotherapy will be eligible.
