196P Short course brachytherapy in locally advanced cervical cancer: Safety and response rate

Short course Brachytherapy in locally advanced cervical cancer; safety and response rateShort course Brachytherapy in locally advanced cervical cancer; safety and response rate Overall treatment time (OTT) is an important index for local control in locally advanced cervical cancer patients who recieve definitive chemoradiation (External Beam Radiation Therapy (EBRT) plus Brachytherapy (BT) plus concomittant chemotherapy). In this study, we examined the efficiency and safety of reducing OTT by reducing duration of the brachytherapy to one week in intervention arm versus three weeks in control arm.
