Study of Cisplatin in Cervical Cancer Stage IVB

This is a single arm, open-label study in women from China who have Advanced (stage IVB) Recurrent or Persistent cervical cancer to ⑴assess the response rate (i.e., CR + PR) of Cisplatin combined with Topotecan in treatment of advanced (stage IVB) recurrent or persistent Cervical cancer; ⑵assess the toxicities of CT regimen in treatment of cervical cancer. Prior to treatment, written informed consent should be obtained from all patients. Eligible patients will be assigned to CT regimen. The CT regimen is topotecan 0.75 mg/m2 IV during 30minutes days 1, 2, and 3; followed by cisplatin 50 mg/m2 IV on day1, repeated every 21 days. The study will consist of two phases: the safety run-in phase and study phase.

• Histologic types included squamous, adenosquamous, and adenocarcinoma of the cervia.
• Patients must be at least 18 years old.
• Measurable and/or evaluable disease parameters will be documented and recorded using clinical evaluation (and using CT for pathologic nodes when present).
• Life expectation greater than 3 months.
• Patients must have adequate organ function.
• Patients without history of sensitivity to camptothecin or platinum.
• Patients who are non-child-bearing potential, or consistent and correct use of methods of birth control from 2 weeks prior to administration of the first dose of study medication until 28 days after the final dose of observational medication.
