Arm Groups

ArmDescriptionAssigned Intervention
Experimental
3-Fraction Brachytherapy Arm
Patients who meet dosimetric criteria at the first brachytherapy session (HR CTV D90 > 85 Gy and acceptable OAR constraints) will receive an investigational 3-fraction HDR brachytherapy regimen (24 Gy total).
  • Radiation: 3-Fraction HDR Brachytherapy
    8 Gy per fraction for 3 fractions (total 24 Gy) for patients with locally advanced cervical cancer, based on individualized planning.
Active Comparator
Investigational Treatment
Patients who do not meet dosimetric criteria for the investigational regimen will receive the institutional standard-of-care regimen of 4 fractions (28 Gy total).
  • Radiation: 4-Fraction HDR Brachytherapy
    7 Gy per fraction for 4 fractions (total 28 Gy) as the standard-of-care brachytherapy regimen.
