1 Gynecologic Cancer InterGroup Cervix Cancer Research Network What is the Cervix Cancer Research Network? January 28, 2015 David Gaffney Steering Committee: Henry Kitchener, Sang Young Ryu, Bill Small, Carien Creutzberg, D. Thinh, Anuja Jhingran, Linda Mileshkin, A.Covens (IGCS) and Monica Bacon Cervix Cancer Education Symposium, January 2016, Bangkok, Thailand
2 Why do we need the Cervix Cancer Research Network (CCRN) Too many women die from cervix cancer Too many women suffer from cervix cancer Research is difficult, but possible in cervix cancer Cervix cancer is a leading cause of death in women from Low Development Index countries, but not in high and medium Development Index countries. Atun et al. Expanding Global Access to Radiotherapy, Lancet Oncol. 16: , 2015
3 Gynecologic Cancer InterGroup Cervix Cancer Research Network CCRN: Goals of this Meeting Improve care and clinical research in cervix cancer Advance knowledge in cervix brachytherapy Support the on-going CCRN trials Develop new CCRN trials Cervix Cancer Education Symposium, January 2016, Bangkok, Thailand
4 Gynecologic Cancer InterGroup Cervix Cancer Research Network Survey Results: CCRN Participants Mean number Range # cervix cases/yr # rad oncs # physicists # dosimetrists nurses nurses aides % of patients getting chemort % completing < 8 weeks Response rate of survey: 69%, 22/32. Cervix Cancer Education Symposium, January 2016, Bangkok, Thailand

13 CCRN: Significant Issues Money (Funding Sources) IGCS (current support) GCIG (current support) Center for Global Health, NIH, USA Gates Foundation Industry (Elekta/Varian/Bebig) Burgeoning market Per case reimbursement? Accrual Ongoing oversight (QA and FU) Insurance/Indemnity issues Site Selection Infrastructure (clinical trials management)
14 Gynecologic Cancer InterGroup Cervix Cancer Research Network CCRN: Summary 4 publically funded Cervix Cancer trials > 60 Accruals to date Site Selection is challenging Many willing expert volunteers Participation in cervix trials may improve care for regions and countries Very grateful for support from GCIG, IGCS, and Industry (Elekta, Varian, and Bebig) Cervix Cancer Education Symposium, January 2016, Bangkok, Thailand
