Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Specialized radiation therapy (RT), such as intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), that delivers a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor may kill more tumor cells and cause le...

OBJECTIVES: * Determine the transportability of intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) to a multi-institutional setting in patients with resected endometrial or cervical cancer. * Compare the effica...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS:
  • Must have undergone a hysterectomy (total abdominal, vaginal, radical, or laparoscopic-assisted vaginal) within 7 weeks prior to study entry
  • Patients with endometrial cancer must have also undergone a bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy
  • Histologically confirmed diagnosis of 1 of the following:
  • Endometrial cancer meeting 1 of the following criteria:
  • Stage IB grade 3, IC grade 1-3, IIA, or IIB disease requiring postoperative pelvic radiotherapy
  • Unstaged (no lymph node dissection or sampling) stage IB grade 2 disease
  • Stage IIIC with all of the following:
  • Pelvic lymph node positive only
  • Para-aortic nodes sampled negative
  • Not receiving chemotherapy
  • Cervical cancer meeting 1 of the following criteria:
  • Post-radical hysterectomy and requires postoperative pelvic radiotherapy due to any of the following:
  • Positive pelvic nodes (negative para-aortic nodes)
  • Microscopic parametrial involvement and negative margins
  • Disease qualified by Sedlis criteria must have 2 of the following risk factors:
  • 1/3 or more stromal invasion
  • Lymph-vascular space invasion
  • Large clinical tumor diameter (≥ 4 cm)
  • Post-simple hysterectomy with negative margins and negative nodes by CT scan, MRI, or positron emission tomography-CT scan
  • No requirement for extended-field radiotherapy beyond the pelvis
  • No histologically confirmed papillary serous, clear cell, or neuroendocrine (either large or small cell) disease, endometrial stromal sarcoma, leiomyosarcoma, or malignant müllerian mixed tumor
  • No evidence of metastatic disease outside of the pelvis
  • No microscopic involvement of the resection margin (\< 3 mm)
  • PATIENT CHARACTERISTICS:
  • Zubrod performance status 0-2
  • WBC (white blood cell count) ≥ 4,000/mm³ (cervical cancer patients only)
  • Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1,800/mm³ (cervical cancer patients only)
  • Platelet count ≥ 100,000/mm³ (cervical cancer patients only)
  • Hemoglobin ≥ 8.0 g/dL (transfusion allowed)
  • Serum creatinine ≤ 2.0 mg/dL (cervical cancer patients only)
  • Creatinine clearance ≥ 50 mL/min (cervical cancer patients only)
  • AST (aspartate aminotransferase) ≤ 2 times upper limit of normal
  • Bilirubin ≤ 2 times upper limit of normal
  • Patients must not exceed the weight and size limits of the treatment table or CT scanner
  • No mental status changes or bladder control problems that would preclude study compliance with bladder-filling instructions
  • No active inflammatory bowel disease
  • No severe, active, concurrent illness, defined as any of the following:
  • Unstable angina and/or congestive heart failure requiring hospitalization within the past 6 months
  • Transmural myocardial infarction within the past 6 months
  • Acute bacterial or fungal infection requiring IV antibiotics
  • Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbation or other respiratory illness requiring hospitalization or precluding study therapy
  • Hepatic insufficiency resulting in clinical jaundice and/or coagulation defects
  • AIDS
  • No history of allergy to cisplatin (cervical cancer patients)
  • No prior invasive malignancy (except nonmelanoma skin cancer) unless disease-free for ≥ 3 years
  • PRIOR CONCURRENT THERAPY:
  • See Disease Characteristics
  • No prior radiotherapy to the pelvis that would result in overlap of radiotherapy fields
  • No prior platinum-based chemotherapy (cervical cancer patients)
  • No concurrent prophylactic growth factors (e.g., filgrastim \[G-CSF\], sargramostim \[GM-CSF\], or pegfilgrastim)
  • No concurrent prophylactic thrombopoietic agents
  • No concurrent amifostine or other protective agents
