MRLinac Boost for Gynecological Cancers if Brachytherapy is Not Feasible (MARGARITA)

Sponsor: UMC Utrecht

Summary

The goal of this observational study is to explore the effectiveness and side effects of a high dose daily adapted SBRT (stereotactic body radiotherapy) boost delivered with MRLinac in patients with gynaecological cancers that cannot receive a brachytherapy boost to the primary tumour for different reasons (medical conditions, tumour extensions, etc). Current alternative for brachytherapy in these situations is often a non-adaptive conebeam- CT guided boost. Conebeam-CT guided non-adaptive high dose SBRT in under these circumstances is described being quite toxic. The main questions this study aims to answer are: * In how many cases could local control (i.e. total disappearance of the tumor) is be achieved with this treatment? * Which side effects are observed in patients receiving this treatment? Participants will be asked to fill out questionnaires (e.g. regarding side effects). Furthermore, participants are asked if their clinical data may be used for study purposes.
