Could vitamin d predict cervical cancer treatment success?
NCT ID NCT07743918
First seen Aug 04, 2026 · Last updated Aug 05, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at whether vitamin D levels in the blood and cervical fluid before treatment can predict how well chemoradiotherapy works for locally advanced cervical cancer. Researchers will measure vitamin D in 100 women undergoing standard treatment and track their response and side effects. The goal is to see if vitamin D could serve as a biomarker to guide treatment decisions.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Pretreatment vitamin D assessment in serum and cervical lavage fluid
- What this could lead to
- If vitamin D levels predict treatment response, this could lead to a simple test to guide therapy and improve outcomes for cervical cancer patients.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, so it cannot prove cause and effect. Results may not apply to all patients, and vitamin D levels could be influenced by many factors.

Who is studied
The study population will include adult individuals who self-identify as female, aged 18 to 80 years, with histopathologically confirmed locally advanced cervical cancer, FIGO 2018 stage IIB-IVA, who are planned for definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy at the Clinic for Radiation Oncology, University Clinical Center Kragujevac. All participants must provide written informed consent and be eligible for standard treatment consisting of external beam radiotherapy, high-dose-rate brachytherapy, and weekly cisplatin-based chemotherapy.
