PURPOSE: MRI-only adaptive brachytherapy (MRI-ABT) is the state-of-the-art for treating locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC) in combination with concurrent chemoradiotherapy. We aimed to evaluate the pattern of pelvic recurrence after the treatment. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A total of one hundred LACC patients were treated between January 2017 and December 2023 with concurrent chemoradiotherapy of 45 Gy in 25 fractions ± boost to lymphadenopathy (up to a maximum dose of 60 Gy in 25 fractions) with concurrent weekly cisplatin chemotherapy at the dose of 40 mg/m2/week, and MR-ABT. RESULTS: At a median follow-up of 30.2 months, there were 2 local recurrences (2%) and 9 regional pelvic recurrences (9%). The median time to local/regional recurrence was 11 months (range 6-21). For all stages, the 3-year local control was 97.66%, and the 3-year pelvic control was 89.45%. Twenty-four patients died during follow-up; the 3-year overall survival was 75.11%, and the 3-year disease-free survival was 70.97%. CONCLUSION: MRI-ABT combined with external beam radiotherapy and concurrent chemotherapy for LACC demonstrates excellent local and regional pelvic control. Most local/regional recurrences occur inside or at the edge of the external-beam irradiated field. Recurrences inside the field of brachytherapy are rare. Distant recurrences are the predominant cause of death in LACC patients treated with definitive CRT and MRI-ABT.

PURPOSE: We aimed to find predictive tumour characteristics as detected by interim positron-emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI) in cervical cancer patients. We also investigated the type of interim response. Furthermore, we compared the investigated parameters with disease-free (DFS) and overall survival (OS) outcomes. METHODS: We evaluated 108 patients treated between August 2015 and January 2023 with external-beam radiotherapy (EBRT) and image-guided adaptive brachytherapy (IGABT) who had undergone pretreatment staging, subsequent mid-treatment evaluation after completed EBRT and definitive restaging 3 months after completing the whole treatment using PET/MRI. Patients were then divided into two groups based on the RECIST and PERCIST criteria: responders (achieving complete metabolic response, CMR) and non-responders (non-CMR). These two groups were compared using selected parameters obtained at pre-PET/MRI and mid-PET/MRI. The early response to treatment as evaluated by mid-PET/MRI was categorized into three types: interim complete metabolic response, interim nodal response and interim nodal persistence. RESULTS: Mid-TLG‑S (the sum of total lesion glycolysis for the primary tumour plus pelvic and para-aortic lymph nodes) parameter showed the best discriminatory ability for predicting non-CMR. The second factor with significant discriminatory ability was mid-MTV‑S (the sum of the metabolic tumour volume of the primary tumour plus pelvic and para-aortic lymph nodes). The strongest factor, mid-TLG‑S, showed a sensitivity of 40% and a specificity of 90% at a threshold value of 70. We found a statistically significant association of DFS and OS with the following parameters: number of chemotherapy cycles, early response type and CMR vs. non-CMR. CONCLUSION: We were able to identify thresholds for selected parameters that can be used to identify patients who are more likely to have worse DFS and OS. The type of early response during concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) was also significantly associated with DFS and OS. These aspects represent an important contribution to the possible stratification of patients for subsequent individualised adjuvant treatment.

OBJECTIVES: SENTIX was a prospective, single-arm, international multicenter study that evaluated sentinel lymph node biopsy without pelvic lymph node dissection in patients with early-stage cervical cancer. We aimed to evaluate the concordance between preoperative imaging modalities (magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasound) and final pathology in the clinical staging of early-stage cervical cancer by post-hoc analysis of the SENTIX study data. METHODS: In total, 47 sites across 18 countries participated in the SENTIX study. Patients with Stage IA1/lymphovascular space invasion-positive to IB2 (International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) classification (2018)) cervical cancer, with usual histological types and no suspicious lymph nodes on imaging, were prospectively enrolled between May 2016 and October 2020. Preoperative pelvic clinical staging on either pelvic MRI or ultrasound examination was mandatory. Tumor size discrepancy (< 10 mm vs ≥ 10 mm) between imaging and pathology, as well as the negative predictive value (NPV) of MRI and ultrasound for parametrial involvement and lymph node macrometastasis, were analyzed. RESULTS: Among 690 eligible prospectively enrolled patients, MRI and ultrasound were used as the staging imaging modality in 322 (46.7%) and 298 (43.2%) patients, respectively. A discrepancy of tumor size ≥ 10 mm was reported between ultrasound and final pathology in 39/298 (13.1%) patients and between MRI and pathology in 53/322 (16.5%), with no significant difference in the accuracy of tumor measurement between the two imaging modalities. The NPV of ultrasound in assessing parametrial infiltration and lymph node involvement was 97.0% (95% CI, 0.95-0.99%) and 94.0% (95% CI, 0.91-0.97%), respectively, and that of MRI was 95.3% (95% CI, 0.93-0.98%) and 94.1% (95% CI, 0.92-0.97%), respectively, with no significant differences between the parameters. Ultrasound and MRI were comparable regarding the tumor size measurement (P = 0.452), failure to detect parametrial involvement (P = 0.624) and failure to detect macrometastases in sentinel lymph node (P = 0.876). CONCLUSIONS: Pelvic ultrasound examination and MRI had similar concordance with histology in the assessment of tumor size and of parametrial and lymph node invasion in early-stage cervical cancer. Ultrasound examination should be considered part of preoperative pelvic clinical staging in early-stage cervical cancer, especially in limited-resource regions where MRI is unavailable. © 2025 The Author(s).

OBJECTIVES: To assess the diagnostic performance of ultrasonography in pre-operative assessment of lymph nodes in patients with cervical cancer, to compare the outcomes for pelvic and para-aortic regions, and to detect macrometastases and micrometastases separately. METHODS: Patients were retrospectively included if they met the following inclusion criteria: pathologically verified cervical cancer; ultrasonography performed by one of four experienced sonographers; surgical lymph node staging, at least in the pelvic region-sentinel lymph node biopsy or systematic pelvic lymphadenectomy or debulking. The final pathological examination was the reference standard. RESULTS: 390 patients met the inclusion criteria between 2009 and 2019. Pelvic node macrometastases (≥2 mm) were confirmed in 54 patients (13.8%), and micrometastases (≥0.2 mm and <2 mm) in another 21 patients (5.4%). Ultrasonography had sensitivity 72.2%, specificity 94.0%, and area under the curve (AUC) 0.831 to detect pelvic macrometastases, while sensitivity 53.3%, specificity 94.0%, and AUC 0.737 to detect both pelvic macrometastases and micrometastases (pN1). Ultrasonography failed to detect pelvic micrometastases, with sensitivity 19.2%, specificity 85.2%, and AUC 0.522. There was no significant impact of body mass index on diagnostic accuracy. Metastases in para-aortic nodes (macrometastases only) were confirmed in 16 of 71 patients who underwent para-aortic lymphadenectomy. Ultrasonography yielded sensitivity 56.3%, specificity 98.2%, and AUC 0.772 to identify para-aortic node macrometastases. CONCLUSION: Ultrasonography performed by an experienced sonographer can be considered a sufficient diagnostic tool for pre-operative assessment of lymph nodes in patients with cervical cancer, showing similar diagnostic accuracy in detection of pelvic macrometastases as reported for other imaging methods (18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/CT or diffusion-weighted imaging/MRI). It had low sensitivity for detection of small-volume macrometastases (largest diameter <5 mm) and micrometastases. The accuracy of para-aortic assessment was comparable to that for pelvic lymph nodes, and assessment of the para-aortic region should be an inseparable part of the examination protocol.

PURPOSE: Image-guided adaptive brachytherapy (IGABT) is currently state of the art in the comprehensive treatment of patients with cervical cancer. Here, we report mature clinical data regarding IGABT of cervical cancer in a large patient sample, examining clinical outcomes, manifestations of late toxicities, and dosimetric findings. METHODS: Between May 2012 and October 2020, we performed a total of 544 uterovaginal IGABT applications in 131 consecutive patients with biopsy-proven cervical carcinoma not suitable for surgery. The median duration of follow-up was 43 months. RESULTS: The estimated 3‑, 4‑, and 5‑year LC rates were 88.3% (95% confidence interval [CI] 81.1-95.5), 86.9% (95% CI 78.5-95.3), and 85.5% (95% CI 76-95%), respectively. The 3‑, 4‑, and 5‑year OS estimates were 72.66% (95% CI 63.64-81.69%), 68.9% (95% CI 59.15-78.66%), and 63.96% (95% CI 52.94-74.97%), respectively. Patients who received ≥ 5 cycles of chemotherapy had statistically significantly better 3‑year recurrence-free survival (RFS) compared to patients who completed <5 cycles (79.07% [95% CI 60.81-97.34] vs. 58.10% [95% CI 47.22-68.98]; p = 0.0185). We recorded manifestations of genitourinary and gastrointestinal toxicity grade ≥3 in 6.9% and 5.3%, respectively. CONCLUSION: Our mature long-term data on the treatment patients with locally advanced cervical cancer show that excellent treatment outcomes can be achieved with MRI-based IGABT, as well as acceptable late morbidity.

PURPOSE: To test effects of positron emission tomography (PET)-based bone marrow-sparing (BMS) image-guided intensity modulated radiation therapy (IG-IMRT) on efficacy and toxicity for patients with locoregionally advanced cervical cancer. METHODS AND MATERIALS: In an international phase II/III trial, patients with stage IB-IVA cervical carcinoma were treated with either PET-based BMS-IG-IMRT (PET-BMS-IMRT group) or standard image-guided IMRT (IMRT group), with concurrent cisplatin (40 mg/m2 weekly), followed by brachytherapy. The phase II component nonrandomly assigned patients to PET-BMS-IMRT or standard IMRT. The phase III trial randomized patients to PET-BMS-IMRT versus IMRT, with a primary endpoint of progression-free survival (PFS) but was closed early for futility. Phase III patients were analyzed separately and in combination with phase II patients, comparing acute hematologic toxicity, cisplatin delivery, PFS, overall survival (OS), and patterns of failure. In a post-hoc exploratory analysis, we investigated the association between pretreatment absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) and OS. RESULTS: In total, 101 patients were enrolled on the phase II/III trial, including 29 enrolled in phase III (PET-BMS-IMRT group: 16; IMRT group: 13) before early closure. Median follow-up was 33 months for phase III patients and 39 months for all patients. PFS and OS at 5 years for all patients were 73.6% (95% confidence interval [CI], 64.9%-84.3%) and 84% (95% CI, 76%-92.9%]), respectively. There were no differences in number of cisplatin cycles, OS, PFS, or patterns of failure between groups for the combined cohort. The incidence of acute grade ≥ 3 neutropenia was significantly lower in the PET-BMS-IMRT group compared with IMRT for randomized patients (19% vs 54%, χ2P = .048) and in the combined cohort (13% vs 35%, χ2P = .01). Patients with pretreatment ALC ≤ 1.5 k/µL had nonsignificantly worse OS on multivariable analysis (HR 2.85; 95% CI, 0.94-8.62; adjusted P = .216), compared with patients with ALC > 1.5 k/µL. There was no difference in posttreatment ALC by treatment group. CONCLUSIONS: PET-BMS-IMRT significantly reduced acute grade ≥3 neutropenia, but not treatment-related lymphopenia, compared with standard IMRT. We found no evidence that PET-BMS-IMRT affected chemotherapy delivery or long-term outcomes, and weak evidence of an association between pretreatment ALC and OS.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate interobserver agreement for the assessment of local tumor extension in women with cervical cancer, among experienced and less experienced observers, using transvaginal ultrasound (TVS) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). METHODS: The TVS observers were all gynecologists and consultant ultrasound specialists, six with and seven without previous experience in cervical cancer imaging. The MRI observers were five radiologists experienced in pelvic MRI and four less experienced radiology residents without previous experience in MRI of the pelvis. The less experienced TVS observers and all MRI observers underwent a short basic training session in the assessment of cervical tumor extension, while the experienced TVS observers received only a written directive. All observers were assigned the same images from cervical cancer patients at all stages (n = 60) and performed offline evaluation to answer the following three questions: (1) Is there a visible primary tumor? (2) Does the tumor infiltrate > ⅓ of the cervical stroma? and (3) Is there parametrial invasion? Interobserver agreement within the four groups of observers was assessed using Fleiss kappa (κ) with 95% CI. RESULTS: Experienced and less experienced TVS observers, respectively, had moderate interobserver agreement with respect to tumor detection (κ (95% CI), 0.46 (0.40-0.53) and 0.46 (0.41-0.52)), stromal invasion > ⅓ (κ (95% CI), 0.45 (0.38-0.51) and 0.53 (0.40-0.58)) and parametrial invasion (κ (95% CI), 0.57 (0.51-0.64) and 0.44 (0.39-0.50)). Experienced MRI observers had good interobserver agreement with respect to tumor detection (κ (95% CI), 0.70 (0.62-0.78)), while less experienced MRI observers had moderate agreement (κ (95% CI), 0.51 (0.41-0.62)), and both experienced and less experienced MRI observers, respectively, had good interobserver agreement regarding stromal invasion (κ (95% CI), 0.80 (0.72-0.88) and 0.71 (0.61-0.81)) and parametrial invasion (κ (95% CI), 0.69 (0.61-0.77) and 0.71 (0.61-0.81)). CONCLUSIONS: We found interobserver agreement for the assessment of local tumor extension in patients with cervical cancer to be moderate for TVS and moderate-to-good for MRI. The level of interobserver agreement was associated with experience among TVS observers only for parametrial invasion. © 2021 The Authors.

PURPOSE: We aimed to find metabolic, functional or morphological characteristics of the tumor predicting failure to achieve complete metabolic remission (CMR) by the midtreatment PET/MRI (positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging) in cervical cancer patients. METHODS: We evaluated 66 patients treated between August 2015 and November 2019 who underwent pretreatment staging, subsequent midtreatment evaluation, and definitive restaging 3 months after completing the whole treatment, all using PET/MRI. The pretreatment parameters (pre-SUVmax, pre-SUVmean, pre-MTV, pre-MTV‑S, pre-TLG, pre-TLG‑S [SUV: standard uptake value, MTV: metabolic tumor volume, TLG: total lesion glycolysis]), and the midtreatment parameters at week 5 during chemoradiotherapy (mid-SUVmax, mid-SUVmean, mid-MTV, mid-MTV‑S, mid-TLG and mid-TLG-S) were recorded. The value of ADC (apparent diffusion coefficient) was also measured. Furthermore, we recorded absolute and relative changes in all parameters-∆ and ∆%. We divided the whole group of patients into "responders" (CMR) and "non-responders" (non-CMR), and compared them on the basis of the parameters from pre-PET/MRI and mid-PET/MRI. RESULTS: A statistically significant difference in the evaluated parameters between responders and non-responders was found for the following parameters: mid-MTV, mid-TLG, mid-TLG‑S, mid-MTV‑S, mid-tumor size, and ∆%SUVmax. According to the ROC (receiver operating characteristic) analysis, mid-MTV‑S showed the best albeit moderate discrimination ability for the prediction of non-CMR. Significant mutual correlations of all variables, in particular between mid-MTV‑S and mid-TLG‑S and between mid-MTV and mid-TLG, were found (all p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Our study confirmed that when using the midtreatment PET/MRI we are able to identify metabolic parameters having the discrimination ability for the prediction of non-CMR. In particular mid-MTV‑S, mid-MTV, mid-tumor size, mid-TLG‑S, mid-TLG and ∆%SUVmax.

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to verify the possibility of summing the dose distributions of combined radiotherapeutic treatment of cervical cancer using the extended Lucas-Kanade algorithm for deformable image registration. MATERIALS AND METHODS: First, a deformable registration of planning computed tomography images for the external radiotherapy and brachytherapy treatment of 10 patients with different parameter settings of the Lucas-Kanade algorithm was performed. By evaluating the registered data using landmarks distance, root mean square error of Hounsfield units and 2D gamma analysis, the optimal parameter values were found. Next, with another group of 10 patients, the accuracy of the dose mapping of the optimized Lucas-Kanade algorithm was assessed and compared with Horn-Schunck and modified Demons algorithms using dose differences at landmarks. RESULTS: The best results of the Lucas-Kanade deformable registration were achieved for two pyramid levels in combination with a window size of 3 voxels. With this registration setting, the average landmarks distance was 2.35 mm, the RMSE was the smallest and the average gamma score reached a value of 86.7%. The mean dose difference at the landmarks after mapping the external radiotherapy and brachytherapy dose distributions was 1.33 Gy. A statistically significant difference was observed on comparing the Lucas-Kanade method with the Horn-Schunck and Demons algorithms, where after the deformable registration, the average difference in dose was 1.60 Gy (P-value: 0.0055) and 1.69 Gy (P-value: 0.0012), respectively. CONCLUSION: Lucas-Kanade deformable registration can lead to a more accurate model of dose accumulation and provide a more realistic idea of the dose distribution.
