Cervical Cancer, Distant Metastasis, Prognostic Model, Radiotherapy, Risk Factor
Conditions
Brief summary
This study aims to help to screen out appropriate cases for consolidation therapy and more intensive follow up.
Detailed description
Some cervical cancer patients experienced distant metastasis quickly after receiving complete radiotherapy and have a worse prognosis. However, there were few studies focused on these patients and with early distant metastasis. It is significant to predictive and screen out cervial cancer patients with a high risk of early metastasis for more comprehensive treatments and follow-up plans
Interventions
Radical RT consisted of external pelvic beam radiotherapy (EBRT) and individualized high-dose-rate intracavitary brachytherapy (HDR-ICBT).Cisplatin-based concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) was recommended for CC patients unless for economic status, age consideration and patients' desires.
