WrightJason 2016 <p>This study examines factors associated with prolonged radiation duration and its impact on survival in women with cervical cancer treated with primary chemoradiation. Women in the National Cancer Database with stage IB2-IVA cervical cancer from 2003 to 2011 who received radiation and chemotherapy were included. Of 7209 women, who met inclusion criteria, 3401 (47.1%) and 3808 (52.8%) completed radiation in ≤ 8 and > 8 weeks, respectively. There was no overall survival difference for radiation duration ≤ 8 vs. > 8 weeks. Sensitivity analyses showed that inferior overall survival is only seen with radiation duration of > 10–12 weeks.</p>
