Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 17 to 45 years
  • Women only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult

Study population: This study focused on young, pre-menopausal patients with atypical endometrial hyperplasia or endometrioid adenocarcinoma diagnosed by hysteroscopic biopsy, who had a strong desire to preserve reproductive function.

Who may be able to join

  • Have a confirmed pathological diagnosis based upon hysteroscopy: atypical endometrial hyperplasia or histologically prove well-differentiated EEC G1 without myometrial invasion
  • No signs of suspicious extrauterine involvement on enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or enhanced computed tomography (CT) or ultrasound
  • Have a desire for remaining reproductive function or uterus
  • Good compliance with adjunctive treatment and follow-up

Who cannot join

  • Acute liver disease or liver tumor (benign or malignant) or renal dysfunction
  • Pregnancy or potential pregnancy
  • Confirmed diagnosis of any cancer in reproductive system
  • Acute severe disease such as stroke or heart infarction or a history of thrombosis disease
  • Hypersensitivity or contradiction for using MPA or MA
  • With other factors of reproductive dysfunction;
  • Strong request for uterine removal or other conservative treatment

About this study

Official title: Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology ,Peking University People's Hospital

To construct a prediction model of progesterone sensitivity in patients with endometrial cancer treated with fertility preservation

Read the detailed description

After diagnosed of early endometrial carcinoma (EEC) or atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH) by hysteroscopy, patients meet the study criteria will be enrolled.

Patients will receive MPA (Medroxyprogesterone acetate) 250-500mg or MA (megestrol acetate) 160-320mg by mouth daily. Then hysteroscopy will be used to evaluate the endometrial condition every 3 months, and intra-operative findings will be recorded. Hysteroscopy will continue until pathology confirms complete response. Complete response (CR) is defined as the reversion of endometrial atypical hyperplasia to proliferative or secretory endometrium; partial response (PR) is defined as regression to hyperplasia with or without atypic; stable disease (SD) is defined as the persistence of the disease; and progressive disease (PD) is defined as the appearance of higher pathological progression, or myometrial invasion, or extra-uterine metastasis. Continuous therapies will be needed in PR or SD. Patients with PD will be recommended for hysterectomy.

During each hysteroscopy, the intraoperative residual tissues were sent to the laboratory of College of Future Science and Technology of Peking University for culture as Patient-derived tumor-like cell clusters (PTC), and the content of lipids (lipid droplet size and cholesterol content) was measured by stimulated Raman scattering imaging and recorded. After collecting the data of 148 cases, the prediction model was constructed. Then the model is validated in the validation set composed of 96 new cases. In order to determine the accuracy and sensitivity of the model.

If a patient has achieved a pathological complete response and a high lipid content is detected in the tissue by stimulated Raman scattering imaging, we will follow up for subsequent recurrence.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Endometrial Carcinoma Stage I and Atypical Endometrial Hyperplasia, run by Peking University People's Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 4 inclusion and 7 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 May 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact WANG JIANLIU, PhD/MD (8601088324383, wangjianliu1203@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

sensitivity (time frame: 7 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 4 May 2025.
