Summary

This phase I/II trial is studying how well fludeoxyglucose F 18 PET scan, CT scan, and ferumoxtran-10 MRI scan finds lymph node metastasis before undergoing chemotherapy and radiation therapy in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer or high-risk endometrial cancer. Diagnostic procedures, such as a fludeoxyglucose F 18 positron emission tomography (PET) scan, computed tomography (CT) scan, and ferumoxtran-10 magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan, may help find lymph node metastasis in patients with cervical cancer or endometrial cancer.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of 1 of the following:
  • Invasive carcinoma of the cervix meeting all of the following criteria:
  • Previously untreated, primary disease
  • Locoregionally advanced (stage IB2, IIA [>= 4 cm], or IIB-IVA) disease
  • Any cell type allowed
  • High-risk endometrial carcinoma meeting 1 of the following criteria:
  • Grade 3 endometrioid or non-endometrioid endometrial carcinoma (clear cell or serous papillary) or carcinosarcoma diagnosed from an endometrial biopsy or dilation and curettage or
  • Grade 1 or 2 endometrioid endometrial carcinoma with cervical stromal involvement overt on clinical examination or confirmed by endocervical curettage
  • Under consideration for chemoradiotherapy (patients with cervical cancer)
  • Undergone appropriate surgery for cervical or endometrial carcinoma with appropriate tissue available for histologic evaluation to confirm diagnosis and stage
  • Appropriate surgical candidate to undergo extraperitoneal or laparoscopic lymph node sampling OR hysterectomy and lymph node sampling
  • No surgery for patients with advanced lymphadenopathy
  • No recurrent invasive carcinoma of the uterus or uterine cervix regardless of previous treatment
  • No known metastases to the lungs or scalene lymph nodes
  • No metastases to other organs outside of the pelvis or abdominal lymph nodes at the time of the original clinical diagnosis
  • Patients with endometrial cancer with known intraperitoneal disease are eligible provided they undergo pelvic and para-aortic lymphadenectomy per protocol
  • Participants must be enrolled at an American College of Radiology Imaging Network (ACRIN)-affiliated institution that is accredited by Gynecologic Oncology Group (GOG)
  • GOG performance status 0-2
  • Creatinine within normal institutional limits OR, in participants with creatinine levels above institutional normal, glomerular filtration rate (GFR) must be > 60 mL/min; there is no lower limit of normal for serum creatinine for this protocol
  • Ferritin levels = 200 mg/dL)
  • No prior pelvic or abdominal lymphadenectomy
  • No prior pelvic radiotherapy
  • No prior anticancer therapy that would contraindicate study participation
