Results — posted to ClinicalTrials.gov
Per-arm endpoint measurements with 95% confidence intervals where reported. Source: trial results section.
Number of Participants With Recurrence, Progression or DeathPrimary· Disease was to be assessed at baseline, end of treatment and every 6 months for two years, and annually up to 5 years.
Number of participants enrolled with recurrence or progression of disease or death up to date of last contact. Progression is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion or the appearance of new lesions.

Patient-reported Peripheral Neuropathy SymptomsSecondary· Prior to study treatment (baseline), Arm 1: 1 week post completion of radiation therapy, Arm 2: Prior to cycle 3 (6 weeks post starting of study treatment), 18 weeks post the starting of study treatement, 70 weeks post the starting of study treatment
Patient reported peripheral neuropathy symptoms was measured with the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy/Gynecologic Oncology Group - neurotoxicity subscale (short version) (FACT/GOG-Ntx subscale). The FACT/GOG-Ntx subscale contains 4 items. Each item was scored using a 5-point scale (0=not at all; 1=a little bit; 2=somewhat; 3=quite a bit; 4=very much). For the negative items, reversal was performed prior to score calculation. According to the FACIT measurement system, the Ntx score was the summation of the individual item scores if more than 50% of subscale items were answered. When una

Patient reported quality of life was measured with the Treatment Outcome Index of the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy for endometrial cancer (FACT-En TOI). It is a scale for assessing general QOL of endometrial cancer patients. It consists of three subscales: Physical Well Being (7 items), Functional Well Being (7 items), and Endometrium Cancer subscale (16 items). Each item was scored using a 5-point scale (0=not at all; 1=a little bit; 2=somewhat; 3=quite a bit; 4=very much). According to the FACIT measurement system, a subscale score was the summation of the individual item scores i

This randomized phase III trial studies carboplatin and paclitaxel to see how well they work with or without cisplatin and radiation therapy in treating patients with stage I-IVA endometrial cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin, paclitaxel, and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving chemotherapy and radiation therapy after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. It is not yet known whether carboplatin and paclitaxel are more effective with or without cisplatin and radiation therapy in treating patients with endometrial cancer.
