Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
CERVANTES trial is designed to bring level A evidence on the role of adjuvant treatment in IR patients in an international, prospective, randomised study. Patients will be registered into the trial before surgery and randomised after the final pathology report has been received into ARM A, with no additional treatment, and ARM B, receiving adjuvant (chemo)radiotherapy. Quality assurance program will be in place for both, radical surgery and adjuvant treatment.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
A: Surgery only
Radical hysterectomy, sentinel lymph node biopsy and systematic pelvic lymphadenectomy (PLND)\*. No further treatment will be administered.
\*PLND can be avoided in patients with tumours \< 4cm
No adjuvant therapy
Patients will not receive any type of adjuvant therapy.
B: Surgery + radiothrerapy
Radical hysterectomy, sentinel lymph node biopsy and systematic pelvic lymphadenectomy (PLND)\*, followed by adjuvant treatment.
\*PLND can be avoided in patients with tumours \< 4cm
Adjuvant radiotherapy
Patients will receive adjuvant treatment composed of either pelvic radiotherapy external beam radiotherapy ± brachytherapy or concomitant chemoradiotherapy (pelvic radiotherapy + chemotherapy).

No adjuvant therapy
Patients will not receive any type of adjuvant therapy.
Adjuvant radiotherapy
Patients will receive adjuvant treatment composed of either pelvic radiotherapy external beam radiotherapy ± brachytherapy or concomitant chemoradiotherapy (pelvic radiotherapy + chemotherapy).
