Trial results suggest better use of existing drugs increases cervical cancer survival and reduces recurrence

The INTERLACE phase III trial assessed whether a short course of induction chemotherapy (IC) prior to chemoradiation (CRT) could reduce the rate of relapse and death among patients with locally advanced cervical cancer. As part of an analysis of clinical data, the preliminary results are presented at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) congress on Sunday 22 October 2023.
