RECIST ver 1.1. Acute toxicity was assessed based on

CTCAE 4.0 and RTOG grading of Acute toxicities.

Results

Patients who tolerated treatment well without acute

radiation or chemotherapy induced morbidity were

comparable in both arms (62.06%(A) and 27.7%(B)) and

(55.17(A)% 18.1%(B)) respectively. Grade I/II proctitis was

seen in 5 patients(17.2%) in Arm A and 4 patients in Arm

B(13.7%) Diarrhea requiring medication (Grade II) was seen

only in 1 patient conventional group. None of the patients

in the concomitant boost group had Genitourinary

morbidity while 1 patient developed GU morbidity in the

conventional group. Development of Gr I Skin reaction was

comparable in both groups. The local control rates were

72.4% vs 51.7% in favor of the control group.

Conclusion

The use of concomitant boost in the management of

locally advanced cervical cancers is not widely practiced

due to the general perception that the toxicity profile may

be more due to dose escalation. This study shows that the

acute toxicity profile of concomitant boost using

conformal therapy is comparable to that of conventional

fractionated radiotherapy with better local control rates.

Further randomized studies need to be carried out to

assess the long term outcome of concomitant boost in

locally advanced cervical cancer.

Purpose or Objective

Cancer cervix is the second commonest female cancer in

India and accounts for 20.2% cancer mortality in women.

Majority of the patients present with advanced stage in

our centre. The study aims to identify factors affecting the

outcome of cancer cervix treated in Chemo-irradiation

era.

Material and Methods

From a surveillance study of 1046 cervical cancer patients

treated at our centre, between January 2006 to

December 2008, data of 790 patients who had radical

radiotherapy were taken . Known prognostic factors like

stage, age , histological type, use of chemotherapy and

overall duration of treatment were taken for the study.

The survival rate was analysed using the Kaplan-Meier

method. Survival data between groups were compared

with the Log-rank test for univariate analysis and Cox

regression analysis for multivariate analysis.

Results

For the 790 patients, median age was 54.9 years (28-82)

with standard deviation(SD) of 10. Median follow up was

59 months (4-93) with SD of 20.5.The five year survival

probability is 70.3%.The probability of five year survival

is 81.2%,80.1%,57.1%,26.7% for stage 1,2,3 and 4

respectively. For patients younger than 40 , 40-70 and

older than 70 years, the probability of five year survival

are 68%,71.6% and 52.7% respectively. Patients who

had squamous cell carcinoma did better with 72% than

those with adeno carcinoma with 59.2% survival

probability. The patients who had concurrent

chemotherapy (two third of patients) also did better

(74.2% compared to 62.3%).Regarding overall treatment

time , <8,<9 and <10 weeks were tested. The survival

probability decreased significantly when

the treatment extended to 9 weeks or more (76.1% vs

63.9%). This

remained

significant whether chemotherapy was used or not.

In univariate analysis, stage, age, histological subtype, use

of chemotherapy and treatment duration less than 9

weeks were significant predictors of survival. In the

multivariate analysis, earlier stage of disease ( stage 2 or

less ) , use of chemotherapy, and duration

of treatment less than 9 weeks were significant.

Conclusion

For patients receiving radical radiation for cancer cervix ,

stage, concurrent chemotherapy and finishing treatment

within 9 weeks are significant factors for survival.

Purpose or Objective

The aim of this study is to analyze the outcomes of

curative irradiation for locally advanced cervical cancer

with or without prophylactic irradiation for para-aortic

lymph nodes (PAN).

Material and Methods

Between 1999 and 2015, 70 patients with locally advanced

cervical cancer treated with curative radiation therapy

were analyzed. The median age was 61 years old. From

1999 to 2008, 33 patients were performed prophylactic

irradiation for PAN after the treatment of whole pelvic

region (PAN+ group). For PAN area, all patients were

treated with 2-4 beams using 10-MV X-ray to a total dose

of 45Gy /25fr or 50.4Gy /28fr. After 2008, prophylactic

irradiation was not performed for 37 patients (PAN-group).

Of 70 patients, 44 patients were performed concurrent

chemo therapy. All patients were classified according to

FIGO staging system. Our cohort includes 47 patients of

stage 3 and 23 patients of stage 4. The acute and late

complications were evaluated according to CTCAE ver.

4.0.

Results

For all patients, 5-year overall survival rate was 53%. For

PAN+ group and PAN- group, relapse from PAN area were

observed for 3 patients each (9%, 8%). There was no

difference between two groups. An acute gastro-intestinal

toxicity more than grade 2 were observed in 6 patients

from PAN+ group and 1 patient from PAN- group. A late

gastro-intestinal toxicity more than grade 2 was observed

in 5 patients and 4 patients from PAN+ group and from

PAN- group respectively.

Conclusion

Prophylactic irradiation for PAN did not prevent local

recurrence from PAN area.

Purpose or Objective

To identify relationship between bladder and rectal

volume changes during radiotherapy with vaginal stump

movement. Also by calculating vaginal stump movement,

adequate PTV margin for vaginal stump can be

determined.

Material and Methods

Ten patients with cervical or endometrial cancer were

enrolled prospectively. All patients received surgery with

curative aim and adjuvant radiotherapy. Patients took

cone beam CT (CBCT) once a week with radiocontrast

soaked gauze and radiopaque markers to visualize vaginal

stump. Each patient underwent total 6 CT imaging

acquisition including one simulation CT and 5 CBCTs. All

CBCT images of each patient were transported to initial
