Filter by:To study if polyethylene glycol loxenatide plus levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) will improve response rates in patients with endometrial atypical hyperplasia.
The overarching objective of this project is to develop a pan-gynecologic cancer detection test using gynecologic (unique endometrial, cervical, and ovarian cancer) cancer-specific methylated DNA markers and high-risk human papilloma virus (HR-HPV) detected in vaginal fluid and/or plasma. This proposal defines Phase II MDM-based cancer detection studies in endometrial cancer (EC) and endometrial hyperplasia with atypia (AEH) in tampon-collected vaginal fluid and 2) ovarian cancer (OC) in plasma and tampon-collected vaginal fluid. Additionally, it defines necessary Phase I MDM-based cancer detection and exploratory aims to test novel cervical cancer (CC) MDMs and test the specificity of cancer-specific MDMs among various common benign gynecologic pathologies.er detection and exploratory aims to test novel cervical cancer MDMs and test the specificity of cancer-specific MDMs among various common benign gynecologic pathologies.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the ability of vibrational spectroscopic techniques, Raman spectroscopy and Attenuated Total Reflection - Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), to accurately differentiate endometrial tissue, lymph nodes and blood samples with womb cancer or endometrial hyperplasia from healthy controls.
Abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) represents common diagnostic challenge in everyday gynecological practice. However, abnormal bleeding is a common symptom of many benign diseases and only indicates the presence of EC in 9% of postmenopausal women and 1% to 2% of premenopausal women, suggesting that many women at low risk undergo unnecessary invasive procedures to rule out cancer. The aim of the study is to create a risk-scoring model of endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial cancer.
To assess the feasibility of an expedited referral process for the obese endometrial cancer or EIN patient from her gynecologic oncologist to the Brigham Center for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (CMBS) in order to undergo concurrent weight loss surgery and hysterectomy within 8 weeks of first appointment with a gynecologic oncologist (or 12 weeks for EIN patients).
This study protocol evaluates the use of hysteroscopic endomyometrial resection in women diagnosed with atypical endometrial hyperplasia or grade I endometrial cancer who have not responded to anti-hormone therapy. Patients in this study wish to preserve fertility.
Primary end points: This clinical trial is aimed to analyze the effectiveness of Levonorgestrel-Releasing Intrauterine System (LNG-IUS, Mirena®) in the fertility-sparing treatment of atypical endometrial hyperplasia and early endometrial carcinoma, including pathology response and pregnancy outcome. Second end points: To analyze the appearances of side-effects.
Several molecular studies showed chromosomal alterations in patients with endometrial cancer, with gains in 1q, 19p, 19q, 8q, 10q and 10p and loss of 4q, 16q and 18q. Several genes of interest have been identified (P53, PTEN, PIK3CA, ß-catenin, K-ras ...). A study has already been carried out at the Reims University Hospital with inclusion of patients with endometrial cancer and patients with endometrial hyperplasia. It identified specific alterations of nosologic continuum of pathology and characterize areas of interest on the genome.
Aim: Assess accuracy of histological diagnosis using ultrasound guided biopsy for women with suspected endometrial cancer (as an alternative to hysteroscopy guided biopsy). All women presenting to clinic with suspected endometrial cancer will have an internal ultrasound. If the endometrial lining is thickened an endometrial biopsy will be performed. This can sometimes be done in an outpatient clinic, or sometimes a hysteroscopy and biopsy is needed (on a different day). Hysteroscopy guided biopsy has the advantage of enabling the clinician to perform directed biopsies under vision. Ultrasound guided biopsy is a ubiquitous procedure when used elsewhere in the body however it is not routinely used in this context. It does have the advantage of being easily performed on the same day as the first consultation. In this pilot study we will assess the diagnostic ability and tolerability of ultrasound guided biopsy of women with suspected cancer, as an alternative to hysteroscopy guided biopsy.
Aim: Assess the diagnostic accuracy of 3D Ultrasound, compared to MRI and final histology with respect to myometrial invasion of endometrial cancer. This study will assess whether 3D ultrasound is accurate at predicting myometrial invasion aqnd lymph node metastasis of endometrial cancer. All patients will receive routine standard of care (MRI). The results of the 3D ultrasound will be compared to the MRI report and final histology.
