Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The experiments outlined in this proposal will compare a number of currently available techniques for assessing hypoxia and interstitial fluid pressures in patients with cervix cancer. The aim of these experiments is to establish the relationship of the clinically relevant outcome measures of tumour control and survival following radiation therapy with these biological characteristics of carcinoma of the cervix relevant to tumour hypoxia. These characteristics will be assessed in patients undergoing treatment using techniques which have reached an appropriate level of development for clinical evaluation and aim to determine the best technique for determining these parameters of the tumour microenvironment. A number of novel strategies directed at the microenvironment are undergoing or soon will be undergoing clinical evaluation and selection of appropriate patients for these trials is of great importance.

Assays on cervical cancer tissue

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Tumour Biopsies and Blood Sampling

Intervention Type OTHER

Patients who consent to the tissue part of this study will have Biopsies taken for study purposes at the same time as their routine tumour biopsies . In addition,those who consent to the blood sampling part of the study will have their samples taken assess serum biomarkers of tumour oxygenation.
