NCT07436793
This phase II trial tests compares the effect of progestins, megestrol acetate to micronized progesterone, in treating patients with endometrial cancer and precancers of the uterus (atypical endometrial hyperplasia) before surgery. Progestins, similar to the natural hormone progesterone, are approved drugs used in birth control and hormone replacement pills, and some can treat uterine endometrial cancers. In the initial comparison of this rotating umbrella trial, megestrol acetate, a progestin, will be compared to micronized progesterone, a form of natural progesterone that is a hormone produced by body normally. Hormone therapy using megestrol acetate and micronized progesterone may be effective in treating patients with endometrial cancer or atypical endometrial hyperplasia before surgery, and understanding the tissue effects of each agent on the malignant endometrium will uncover novel mechanistic and biomarker data to understand how best to advanced hormone therapy for endometrial cancer.
NCT05903131
Up to 60% of endometrial cancer cases are attributed to obesity, in part because obesity promotes development of atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH), and up to 40% of women with AEH go on to develop endometrial cancer. The increasing prevalence of obesity in premenopausal women has resulted in increasing rates of AEH in this age group. Hysterectomy with removal of the fallopian tubes and ovaries is 100% effective in preventing endometrial cancer, but this approach results in infertility. Fertility-sparing treatments exist, such as treatment with oral or intrauterine progestin, but these treatments do not work uniformly and do not combat the underlying cause of endometrial cancer, which is obesity and metabolic syndrome. Additionally, up to 41% of women on progestin eventually experience relapse of AEH or endometrial cancer. Third, many patients have insulin resistance that may worsen with progestin therapy. Thus, to improve treatment of AEH and grade 1 endometrial cancer, prevent and reverse endometrial cancer, and allow women to preserve their fertility, the investigators must integrate an effective weight loss strategy to be given with progestin treatment. It is the hypothesis that premenopausal women with AEH desire uterine preservation will be more likely to have atypia-free uterine preservation at one year if they receive progestin in combination with a behavioral weight loss intervention versus progestin plus enhanced usual care.
NCT05829460
The investigators hypothesize that combined treatment with the GLP-1R agonist semaglutide 2.4 mg and levonorgestrel intrauterine device (LNG-IUD), compared to LNG-IUD alone, will result in improved likelihood of uterine preservation, sustained weight loss, improved endometrial and metabolomic response to progestin, and improved quality of life in premenopausal women with endometrial hyperplasia who desire uterine preservation.
NCT07137299
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the impact of different hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) techniques on the risk of pelvic organ prolapse (situation when one or more of your pelvic organs like your bladder, uterus, or rectum have dropped down or slipped out of their normal position, sometimes even bulging into the vagina) and urinary incontinence (leaking urine unexpectedly) in women aged 18-85 who underwent hysterectomy or supracervical hysterectomy (removing of the uterus without its cervix) for benign (not cancer) conditions. The main question is: to check how different surgical technique (laparoscopic, with opening the abdomen, vaginal and robotic) increase the risk of pelvic organ prolapse or urinary incontinence There is no randomization or control group; comparisons will be made between surgery types based on clinical and questionnaire data. Participants will: * Receive an invitation to participate if they underwent hysterectomy between 2021-2025. * Fill out validated quality of life questionnaires (P-QOL, POPDI-6, PFIQ-7) every two years. * Attend follow-up clinical pelvic exams every two years to assess vaginal cuff healing, pelvic organ prolapses (POP-Q system), and urinary symptoms. This prospective, non-commercial, multicenter study plans to enroll 2,000 women and will run from July 1, 2025, to July 1, 2036
NCT00788671
This phase II trial studies how well levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system works in treating patients with complex atypical hyperplasia or grade I endometrial cancer. High levels of estrogen can cause the growth of endometrial cancer cells. Progesterone can help balance the amount of estrogen present. Hormone therapy using levonorgestrel, a type of progesterone, may fight endometrial cancer by helping regulate hormone levels.
NCT07077876
This observational study aims to evaluate the obstetric and oncological outcomes of patients diagnosed with endometrial adenocarcinoma (EAC) or atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH) who underwent conservative treatment at the CLASS Hysteroscopy Center of Fondazione Policlinico Universitario A. Gemelli IRCCS in Rome. Eligible patients include women who received hysteroscopic surgery and hormonal therapy either to preserve fertility or due to medical contraindications to standard radical surgery. Follow-up lasts 12 months.
NCT06524934
The aim of the study is to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of virtual reality technology in outpatient hysteroscopy to improve pain and anxiety management and spread the diffusion of see \& treat philosophy.
NCT05378152
Postmenopausal bleeding (PMB) is the occurrence of vaginal bleeding 12 months following a woman's last menstrual cycle. PMB represents one of the most common reasons for referral to gynaecology services. Approximately 10% of women with PMB will be found to have endometrial cancer. The gold standard of investigation of PMB is ambulatory gynaecology through the outpatient hysteroscopy clinic, which is often combined with Pipelle biopsy for endometrial sampling. Up to 60% of women that present with PMB will have an atrophic-appearing cavity at hysteroscopy. This provides a challenge in obtaining a histological sample through both dilatation \& curretage (D\&C) and Pipelle biopsy. Often, scant tissue that is insufficient for clinical diagnosis is obtained. Pipelle biopsy is associated with patient discomfort. It is also associated with costs related to the purchasing of equipment and the processing of samples in the laboratory to the sum of approximately 30 euro per sample. It is rare that a sample taken from an atrophic cavity will return any clinically meaningful result. A negative hysteroscopy reduces the probability of endometrial cancer to 0.6%. This study aims to compare patients with PMB and atrophic-appearing cavity that undergo pipelle biopsy to those that do not. Differences in pain scores, cost saving and differences in clinical follow up will be assessed to evaluate the benefit of Pipelle biopsy in patients with PMB and atrophic-appearing cavity.
NCT06378489
Endometrial hyperplasia without atypia is a condition in which the endometrium (the lining of the uterus) becomes abnormally thick. Although endometrial hyperplasia without atypia is not cancer, it can lead to endometrial cancer in 1-3% of women. This disease is treated by giving progestins. The optimal route, dosage and duration of progestin treatment for endometrial hyperplasia has not yet been determined until now. However, several publications have suggested the use of levonorgestrel releasing IUD as first-line treatment for endometrial hyperplasia without atypia. The other common medications used are the oral progestins medroxyprogesterone (MPA) and norethisterone acetate (NETA). The etonogestrel implant (Implant NXT) has been approved for contraceptive use by the US FDA in 2006. The mchanism of action of the implant for contraception suggests a potential application for its use in the treatment on hyperplasia. Off-label use of the implant for adrnomyosis, endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain has already been described in various studies. However, its therapeutic effect on endometrial hyperplasia without atypia has not been studied yet. The researchers propose to use the etonogestrel implant (Implant NXT) as novel treatment for endometrial hyperplasia without atypia. The study aims to determine the rate of regression to normal endometrium among patients with endometrial hyperplasia without atypia at 3 and 6 months after insertion of the implant.

NCT03176992
Two hundred \& forty patients aged from 40 to 50 years - complaining of heavy menstrual bleeding that is unresponsive to hormonal lines of treatment \& requesting conservative surgical approach- were randomized into 3 groups; group A (Surgicel group) in which 80 patients underwent formal curettage followed by insertion of 4 pieces of Surgicel inside the uterine cavity, group B (Thermal balloon ablation group) in which 80 patients underwent thermal balloon ablation using bipolar radiofrequency electrical energy (Novasure), group C (Endometrial resection group) in which 80 patients underwent transcervical Hysteroscopic endometrial resection.All patients were followed up over duration of 18 months following the procedure (at 3,6,12 \& 18 months). Primary outcome included amenorrhea rates
NCT00123188
The investigators hypothesize that endometrial thickness will be a significant predictor of endometrial hyperplasia in a postmenopausal female population with metabolic syndrome: diabetes and/or insulin resistance, hypertension, and obesity.
NCT00242710
The purpose of this study is to determine whether bazedoxifene/conjugated estrogens combinations are effective for the prevention of endometrial hyperplasia and for the prevention of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.
NCT01234818
A prospective multicenter trial has been started in Korea to investigate the treatment efficacy of Levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) in endometrial hyperplasia (EH) patients. The LNG-IUS is known as an alternative of oral progesterone agents without incurring the disadvantages of oral progestogens. Therefore, it is hypothesized that if the therapeutic efficacy of LNG-IUS is similar or above oral progesterone, LNG-IUS would be a standard treatment for the EH patients who don't want hysterectomy. LNG-IUS is inserted into uterus of which patients are histologically confirmed as endometrial hyperplasia. Office endometrial aspiration biopsy and transvaginal ultrasound is conducted every 3 months at outpatients The primary endpoint is response rate. Secondary endpoint is to estimate the consistency of the results between office endometrial aspiration biopsy and dilatation and curettage (D\&C) procedure.
