Flexitouch® Home Maintenance Therapy or Standard Home Maintenance Therapy in Treating Patients With Lower-Extremity Lymphedema Caused by Treatment for Cervical Cancer, Vulvar Cancer, or Endometrial Cancer

Stopped early · Phase 3

Conditions studied: Lymphedema, Stage 0 Cervical Cancer, Stage 0 Uterine Corpus Cancer, Stage 0 Vulvar Cancer, Stage I Uterine Corpus Cancer, Stage I Vulvar Cancer, Stage IA Cervical Cancer, Stage IB Cervical Cancer, Stage II Uterine Corpus Cancer, Stage II Vulvar Cancer, Stage IIA Cervical Cancer, Stage IIB Cervical Cancer, Stage III Cervical Cancer, Stage III Uterine Corpus Cancer, Stage III Vulvar Cancer, Stage IV Uterine Corpus Cancer, Stage IVA Cervical Cancer, Stage IVB Cervical Cancer, Stage IVB Vulvar Cancer

In brief

This randomized phase III trial is studying Flexitouch® home maintenance therapy to see how well it works compared with standard home maintenance therapy in treating patients with lower-extremity lymphedema caused by treatment for cervical cancer, vulvar cancer, or endometrial cancer. Flexitouch® home maintenance therapy may lessen lower-extremity lymphedema caused by treatment for gynecologic cancer. It is not yet known whether the Flexitouch® system is more effective than standard home maintenance therapy in treating lymphedema.
