Quality of life in patients with cervical cancer after open versus minimally invasive radical hysterectomy (LACC): a secondary outcome of a multicentre, randomised, open-label, phase 3, non-inferiority trial

Here, we report the results of a secondary endpoint, quality of life, of the LACC trial. Methods The LACC trial was a randomised, open-label, phase 3,...
