Purpose
A study to evaluate the efficacy of Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) as compared to Standard Conventional Radiotherapy Alone in the treatment of carcinoma cervix. Concomitant Weekly Cisplatin chemotherapy will be given as a routine, which is a standard of care today for early stage cervical cancers including stage IIB. The benefits of using IMRT in reducing radiation-induced toxicity are well known. Since this treatment modality has not yet been validated and studied in a randomized trial setting, the present study is being undertaken. The study arm of IMRT has the potential to reduce the toxicities by 15-20%, but is associated with labor intense procedure requiring many hospital visits before actual start of treatment.
