Respons radiasi kanker serviks diduga dapat ditingkatkan dengan pemilihan waktu radiasi tetap yang berpola sirkadian karena dianggap sesuai dengan fase radiosensitif G₂-M sel kanker. Daur sirkadian dan melatonin dianggap berperan dalam radiosensitivitas. Dihipotesiskan respons radiasi pagi hari maupun efek samping radiasi pagi hari akan lebih baik dibanding sore hari.

Penelitian ini merupakan uji klinis dengan perolehan subjek secara berurutan. Alokasi pilihan waktu radiasi pada pagi (06.00–08.00) dan sore (16.00–18.00) hari dengan randomisasi blok tiap enam subjek terpisah antara stadium II dan III. Data diperoleh menggunakan metode open label. Pengukuran data klinis seperti ukuran tumor, respons klinis, dan efek samping dilakukan oleh dua dokter independen yang terlatih. Dilakukan pengukuran kadar melatonin dan fase G₂-M siklus sel di institusi resmi. Respons baik dan buruk ditetapkan berdasarkan kriteria WHO sedangkan efek samping ada atau tidak, ditetapkan berdasarkan kiriteria RTOG.

Penyinaran di waktu pagi menunjukkan respons klinis lebih baik dibandingkan sore (p 0,025; 95% IK:1,27–33,08; adj OR: 6,48) untuk respons pascaradiasi maupun 2–4 minggu pascaradiasi (p 0,048; 95% IK 1,02–47,81; adj OR 6,98). Kadar Hb awal dan ukuran klinis tumor berpengaruh secara bermakna terhadap respons baik pascaradiasi maupun respons baik 2–4 minggu pascaradiasi. Dalam hal efek samping, pilihan waktu radiasi tidak menunjukkan hasil yang bermakna, namun kadar melatonin praradiasi berpengaruh, khususnya efek samping kulit (p 0,006; 95% IK 1,66–18,99; adj OR 5,62). Variabel yang bermakna memengaruhi efek samping terapi pada gastrointestinal adalah overall treatment time (p 0,031; 95% IK 1,19–39,93; adj OR 6,89), sedangkan untuk genitourinaria adalah PA diferensiasi (p 0,015; 95% IK 1,51–46,37; adj OR 8,36), penurunan berat badan (p 0,025; 95% IK 1,22–18,30; adj OR 4,72), dan nyeri sebelum radiasi (p 0,017; 95% IK 1,31–15,32; adj OR 4,47).

Simpulan: Respons radiasi kanker serviks uteri yang diradiasi pagi hari lebih baik daripada yang diradiasi sore hari, namun efek samping radiasi pagi hari tidak berbeda bermakna dibandingkan sore hari. Belum dapat dipastikan pengaruh besarnya proporsi fase G₂-M terhadap respons klinis radiasi. Ada kecenderungan pengaruh kadar melatonin pagi hari terhadap respons klinis radiasi dan terbukti kadar melatonin berpengaruh pada efek samping kulit.

The radiation response of cervical cancer can be enhanced by the choice of a fixed radiation time of circadian pattern because it is considered to be in accordance with the radiosensitive phase of G₂-M cancer cells. Circadian cycles and melatonin are thought to play a role in radiosensitivity. It is hypothesized that the response and side effects of morning radiation will be better than the afternoon.

This study was an RCT (randomized clinical trials) with consecutive sampling. Treatment allocation for radiation time in the morning (06.00–08.00) and afternoon (16.00–18.00) were determined by block randomization for every six subjects based on the stage (II and III). The data was obtained with an open label method. Measurement of clinical data such as tumor size, clinical response, and side effects were carried out by two-trained independent physicians. Measurement of melatonin levels and G₂-M phases of cell cycle were carried out in official institution. Good and poor responses were set based on WHO criteria while the side effects were determined based on the RTOG criteria.

Morning radiation showed a better post-radiation and 2–4 weeks post-radiation clinical response compared with afternoon (p 0.025; 95% CI:1.27–33.08; adj OR: 6.48 and p 0.048; 95%CI 1.02–47.81; adj OR 6.98, respectively). The initial Hb level and clinical size of the tumor had a significant effect on good response both post-radiation and 2-4 weeks post-radiation. In regards to the side effects, radiation time did not show significant results in causing side effects, but pre-radiation melatonin level did on skin (p 0.006; 95%CI 1.66–18.99; adj OR 5.62). The significant variable in influencing gastrointestinal side effects was overall treatment time (p 0.031; 95%CI 1.19–3.93; adj OR 6.89), whereas for genitourinaria were differentiation of histopathology (p 0.015; 95%CI 1.51–46.37; adj OR 8.36), weight loss (p 0.025; 95%CI 1.22–18.30; adj OR 4.72), and presence of pain pre-radiation (p 0.017; 95%CI 1.31–15.32; adj OR 4.47).

Conclusion: The radiation response of irradiated uterine cervical cancer is better in the morning than the afternoon. Nevertheless, the side effects of morning radiation do not differ significantly compared to the afternoon. The influence of the G₂-M phase proportion on the clinical response to radiation cannot be ascertained. The level of melatonin in the morning might affect the radiation response and affect the side effects on skin.

In general, it was assumed that the chromosome aberration induced by ionizing radiation is proportional to the chromosome size. From this viewpoint, the higher chromosome size, the more resistant to radiation. However, different opinions, in which chromosomes are particularly sensitive or resistant to radiation, are also still followed until now. Here in this research, we compared the chromosome sensitivity between chromosomes number 1, 2, and 4 using the FISH (fluorescence in situ hybridization) technique. From this research, we expect that the information obtained could show clearly whether a longer chromosome is more frequently involved in translocations and also more resistant to radiation than a shorter one. The type of chromosome aberration considered was limited only to translocation and we used one sample donor in order to avoid donor variability. The whole blood from a healthy female was irradiated with γ-rays with doses of 1, 3 and 5 Gy, respectively. Isolated lymphocytes from the whole blood were then cultured for 48 hours. After the culture process was completed, preparations of harvest and metaphase chromosomes were carried out. Chromosomes 1, 2, and 4 were stained with different fluorochromes. The translocation of each chromosome at each dose point was subsequently evaluated from 50 images obtained from an automated metaphase finder and capturing system. An additional analysis was performed to identify which chromosome arm was more frequently involved in translocation. Further analyses were also conducted with the aim of determining which chromosome band had a higher frequency of radiation-induced breakage. The experimental results showed that chromosome number 4 was more frequently involved in translocations compared to chromosomes 1 and 2 at 5 Gy. In contrast, at doses of 1 and 3 Gy translocations involving chromosomes number 1 and 2 were more numerous compared to the ones involving chromosome 4. However, if the number of translocation was accumulated for all the doses applied, the chromosome number 4 was the chromosome most frequently involved in translocations. Breakpoint analysis revealed that in chromosome 1, chromosome 2, and chromosome 4, the highest chromosome bands as break position were in band q32, p13, and q21, respectively. It can be concluded that chromosome 4 is more sensitive to radiation in all doses point, despite having less DNA content than chromosomes 1 and 2. Thus, it was showed that our research cannot support the general assumption about chromosome aberration induced by radiation being proportional to DNA content.
