About this study

Official title: PD-1 Inhibitor Combined With Progesterone Treatment in Early Stage Endometrial Cancer Patients Who Want to Preserve Fertility

We want to make a comparison of PD-1 inhibitor combined with progesterone versus progesterone alone in the treatment of early stage endometrial cancer patients who want to preserve fertility.

Read the detailed description

Approximately 63,400 new cases of endometrial cancer are diagnosed annually in China. While the initial treatment for early-stage disease is surgical staging with lymphadenectomy, it is apparently inappropriate for young patients who want to preserve fertility. Currently the standardize treatment for these patients are high-dose progesterone, which will be effective in approximately 40~70% patients. Mirena have been used recently as a new available treatment option, however, no concrete evidence shows it is more effective than the traditional progesterone treatment.

PD-1 inhibitor has been utilized as a salvage treatment in many cancers including ovarian cancer, cervical cancer, lung cancer, gastric cancer and endometrial cancer. As endometrial cancer showed high microsatellite instability-high/deficient mismatch repair (MSI-H/dMMR) rates, it is assumed to be highly responsive to PD-1 inhibitor treatment. Published clinical trial results showed that PD-1 inhibitor treatment was effective in 6/24 late-stage endometrial cancer patients, with little or mild side effects. Here we want to investigate the efficacy of PD-1 inhibitor combined with progesterone in early stage endometrial cancer patients who want to preserve fertility.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Pathologic complete remission rate of endometrial curettage tissues

    Hysteroscopy was performed 6 months after treatment. If the pathological results are normal, it is considered to be complete remission

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Pathologic partial remission rate of endometrial curettage tissues

    Hysteroscopy was performed 6 months after treatment. If the pathological results showed hyperplasia, it is considered to be partial remission

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. adverse effects

    side effects was evaluated every 2 weeks during treatment

    Measured: up to 1 year after treatment

  2. pregnancy rate

    pregnancy rate was recorded after treatment

    Measured: up to 2 years after treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing PD-1 inhibitor combined progesterone and progesterone in people with Endometrial Cancer Stage I, run by Shanghai First Maternity and Infant Hospital.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 12 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Aug 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pathologic complete remission rate of endometrial curettage tissues (time frame: 6 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Aug 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
