Summary
Brief summary
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as tirapazamine and cisplatin, work in different
ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from
dividing. Tirapazamine may help cisplatin kill more tumor cells by making tumor cells more
sensitive to the drug. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells.
Tirapazamine may also make tumor cells more sensitive to radiation therapy. Giving radiation
therapy in different ways together with combination chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of tirapazamine when
given together with cisplatin and radiation therapy in treating patients with stage IB, stage
II, stage III, or stage IVA cervical cancer.
