Asian Gynecological Brachytherapy Registry in Cervical Cancer

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Gynecological cancer poses as significant public health issue, especially in Asian countries, where it is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths among women. Cervical cancer accounts for around 311,000 deaths annually, with over 85% occurring in low- and middle-income nations, primarily in Asia. Factors contributing to this burden include limited access to preventive care, inadequate screening, high rates of human papillomavirus infection, and cultural barriers that delay medical attention. For patients with advanced cervical cancer, the standard treatment involves external beam radiation therapy along with chemotherapy followed by internal radiation, known as Brachytherapy. This technique uses unique set of devices placed internally at the tumor sitegiving localized radiation to the residual tumor tissue. While advanced brachytherapy techniques have been developed and practiced in Europe and American countries yielding excellent clinical outcomes, there is insufficient data on the use and results of such advanced brachytherapy techniques in Asian populations, leading to a lack of standardized practices. To address these issues, the Asian Gynecological Brachytherapy Registry (ABGR) has been established as a collaborative platform for data collection and analysis on the use of Brachytherapy techniques. This registry aims to consolidate information from various healthcare settings across Asia, enhancing understanding of cervical cancer's epidemiology, evaluating treatment effectiveness, and identifying areas for improvement in patient care.
