In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The purpose of this protocol is to determine toxicity and efficacy of proton therapy in combination with standard concomitant platinum-based chemotherapy and standard image-guided adaptive brachytherapy (IGABT) in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC). The over-all aim is to maintain a high disease control and at the same time reduce acute morbidity as well as late side effects after treatment.
