We present the results of the PHRC Tridicol, a prospective French phase II study whose objective was to increase the dose delivered to the target volume during brachytherapy for locally advanced cervical cancers.Eight centers included 48 patients, treated with concomitant radiochemotherapy, then uterovaginal brachytherapy.The median follow-up was 63 months. The dose of brachytherapy delivered in biological equivalent dose (EQD2) to 90% of the High Risk CTV (D90 CTV HR) was 80Gy in median dose. The 5-year local control rate (LC) was 84%, close to the hypothesis of 86.7%. The rate of severe complications (grade 3-4) was 23% at 5 years. The rectal dose was correlated with the risk of severe complications.HR CTV dose was below the target (85Gy) due to low use of parametrial interstitial needles, as the centers did not always have an adequate applicator, or were at the time at the beginning of their learning curve. The 5-year LC rate was improved compared to that of the comparable STIC PDR group (78%) but lower than the retroEMBRACE cohort of GEC ESTRO (89%). The complication rate was higher than in the comparable group of STIC PDR but close to that of retroEMBRACE. Training brachytherapy teams in interstitial implantation or referring patients to referral centers should help improve the therapeutic index of cervical cancer. |
