Brief Summary:
This randomized phase III trial studies radiation therapy and cisplatin with triapine to see how well they work compared to the standard radiation therapy and cisplatin alone in treating patients with newly diagnosed stage IB2, II, or IIIB-IVA cervical cancer or stage II-IVA vaginal cancer. Radiation therapy uses high energy protons to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Triapine may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether radiation therapy and cisplatin are more effective with triapine in treating cervical or vaginal cancer.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Overall Survival (OS) Rate at 3 Years [ Time Frame: At 3 years from randomization. ]
    Estimate for probability of overall survival at 3 years by Kaplan-Meier method, where overall survival is defined as the time from randomization to time of death due to any cause or the date of last contact, whichever occurs first.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Progression-free Survival (PFS) Rate at 3 Years [ Time Frame: At 3 years from study randomization. ]
    Estimate for probability of progression free at 3 years by Kaplan-Meier method, where progression-free survival is defined as the time from randomization to the date of first documented disease recurrence/progression, death from any cause or date of last contact, whichever occurs first. Recurrence is defined as clinical, radiological or histological evidence of recurrent disease post study treatment. Disease progression will be determined from the physical examinations, which were conducted during treatment (day 9, 16, 23, 30 and 37) and follow-up (1 and 3 months after completing protocol therapy, every 3 months for years 1 and 2, and every 6 months for years 3, 4 and 5), and the PET/CT scan conducted 3 months after the end of treatment. Please note that progression defined using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST 1.1) is not required by the protocol.

  2. Number of Participants With Adverse Events (Grade 3 or Higher) During Treatment Period [ Time Frame: During treatment period and up to 30 days after stopping the study treatment with a median treatment time as 53 days ranging from 1 to 189 days. ]
    Number of participants with a maximum grade of 3 or higher during treatment period. Adverse events are graded and categorized using CTCAE v4.0.


Other Outcome Measures:
  1. Number of Participants With Hematologic Toxicity During Treatment Period [ Time Frame: Up to 30 days after completion of study treatment ]
    Number of participants with hematologic toxicity during treatment period, where hematologic toxicity is defined as occurrence of any grade 3 or higher adverse events for neutropenia, leukopenia, lymphopenia, anemia, or thrombocytopenia. Adverse events are graded and categorized using CTCAE v4.0.

  2. Number of Participants With Adverse Events (Grade 3 or Higher) That Occurred During Follow-Up Period [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ]
    Number of participants with a maximum grade of 3 or higher that occurred during follow-up period. Adverse events are graded and categorized using CTCAE v4.0.

  3. Peripheral Blood Methemoglobin [ Time Frame: Baseline to 24 hours after triapine infusion ]
    Peripheral blood methemoglobin collected at baseline and 1, 3, 5 and 24 hours after Triapine infusion on Day 1 in Arm II.

  4. Metabolic Complete Response (mCR) [ Time Frame: Up to 3 months after completion of treatment ]
    The assessment of metabolic complete response is based on the ratio of post 3-month therapy PET/CT maximum standardized update value (SUV) to pre-therapy PET/CT maximum SUV. The metabolic complete response is classified as complete response for a ratio of 0.33 or less, or partial response for a ratio between 0.34 and 0.75, or stable response for a ratio greater that 0.75 but less than 1.25, or progressive response for a ratio greater than 1.25.

  5. Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IG-IMRT) [ Time Frame: Up to 60 days. ]
    Number of Participants with KBP IG-IMRT
