Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
1. This strategy might suggest a therapeutic option to preserve ovarian function in young patients among which locally advanced cancer cervix is common. Based on previous studies, neoadjuvant irinotecan and cisplatin followed by radical hysterectomy and adjuvant chemotherapy has the potential to improve the prognosis compared the concurrent chemo-radiotherapy(CCRT). 2. To offer an alternative effective treatment line replacing concurrent chemo-radiotherapy to avoid dramatic radiotherapy induced complications which might impede a safe successful surgery. 2- To reduce the proportion of patients who will go for radiotherapy, consequently those patients will still have a chance of probable less complicated surgery in case of local recurrence. 3- This study will involve neo-adjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) in treating patients with stage II-III cervical cancer for reducing tumor size, minimizing blood loss during surgery and eradication of possible micro-metastasis. 4- To Improve the likelihood of achieving complete tumor resection after NACT. 5- Investigators will further follow-up those patients for more detailed assessments to confirm whether NACT can improve patients' prognoses, survival, quality of life, and the standard of care.

Arms (1)
- type
- EXPERIMENTAL
- label
- Single arm of patients with locally advanced cancer cervix
- description
- Single arm study to assess the efficacy and safety of use of neoadjuvant cisplatin and irinotecan in treatment of patients with locally advanced cancer cervix. A combined regimen of intravenous infusion of cisplatin 80mg/m2 on day 1 with irinotecan 60mg/m2 on day 1 and day 8 of every 21- day cycle for 3 cycles. Then, MRI pelvis will be used for assessment of disease response. According to RECIST criteria, patients who will develop at least stable disease, will be sent for radical hysterectomy. Afterwards, 6 weeks after the surgery, another 3 cycles of the same regimen will be given to the participants as adjuvant treatment.

- Drug: Cis Platinum + Irinotecan
Primary outcomes (1)
- measure
- Respectability of the tumor
- timeFrame
- Evaluation will be done by MRI pelvis after 3 cycles( of the 21- day cycle) of chemotherapy
- description
- Evaluation of the effect of use of neoadjuvant cisplatin and irinotecan on the tumor size when assessed by MRI pelvis cancer Evaluation of the tumor size by MRI pelvis after giving 3 cycles of cisplatin and irinotecan. So, baseline( prechemotherapy) MRI pelvis and another re-evaluation MRI pelvis will be used for proper assessment.
