Filter by:This randomized phase II/III trial studies how well paclitaxel, carboplatin, and metformin hydrochloride works and compares it to paclitaxel, carboplatin, and placebo in treating patients with endometrial cancer that is stage III, IV, or has come back. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel and carboplatin, 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. Metformin hydrochloride may help paclitaxel and carboplatin work better by making cancer cells more sensitive to the drugs. It is not yet known whether paclitaxel and carboplatin is more effective with or without metformin hydrochloride in treating endometrial cancer.
This is an open label, multi-center, single arm phase II study. The study will investigate the efficacy of sodium cridanimod in conjunction with progestin therapy in a population of patients with recurrent or persistent PrR-negative endometrial cancer.
This randomized, pilot phase I trial studies whether phone or email reminders increases vaginal dilator use in patients with endometrial, cervical, or vaginal cancers after they undergo brachytherapy. Brachytherapy is a type of internal radiation which uses radioactive material placed directly into or near a tumor to kill tumor cells. A reminder program may help increase use of vaginal dilators and decrease long-term side effects following brachytherapy.
The investigators will explore the chemopreventive role of metformin. The purpose of this study is to determine whether, among patients with endometrial cancer, treatment with the currently approved insulin sensitizing drug metformin increases or decreases pathway activation distal to the insulin receptor in endometrial cancer tissue. This is a phase IIa study of metformin to be used to the pre-operative period of women diagnosed with endometrial cancer by comparing their endometrial biopsy specimens taken at their initial visit and after 4-6 weeks of treatment of metformin on the day of their surgical staging.
This is an observational study. The purpose is to determine the feasibility of using a novel nano-scintillator fiber-optic dosimeter (nanoFOD) for the real time dosimetric monitoring of brachytherapy treatment. Women with gynecologic cancers treated with brachytherapy as part of their standard therapeutic regimen will represent the study population.
Purpose: This is an open label, single-arm, single-center study of the addition of metformin to standard levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine device (LR-IUD) treatment of 30 evaluable non-surgical patients with either complex atypical hyperplasia (CAH; n=15) or grade 1 endometrial adenocarcinoma (EC; n=15). Participants:Women, over the age of 18 years, with biopsy-proven CAH/EC who are not candidates for surgical management, and therefore are planned to start standard of care treatment with the LR-IUD Procedures (methods): subjects will be given oral metformin therapy for 12 months, or until disease progression occurs (whichever occurs first), in addition to LR-IUD treatment. Serial endometrial biopsies will be performed, as per standard of care, to assess disease status.
The primary trial objective is to determine the efficacy of KPT-330 (selinexor) in participants with advanced or metastatic gynaecological cancers by disease control rate (complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) or stable disease (SD) for at least 12 weeks, assessed according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1.
This therapy aims to determine whether curcumin can inhibit tumor induced inflammation in patients with endometrial carcinoma. In addition, curcumin could possibly induce a better functioning of chemotherapy and a decrease in toxicity from chemotherapy. Various studies have demonstrated that curcumin can have an effect on tumor growth and the development of metastases.
The iCaRe2 is a multi-institutional resource created and maintained by the Fred & Pamela Buffett Cancer Center to collect and manage standardized, multi-dimensional, longitudinal data and biospecimens on consented adult cancer patients, high-risk individuals, and normal controls. The distinct characteristic of the iCaRe2 is its geographical coverage, with a significant percentage of small and rural hospitals and cancer centers. The iCaRe2 advances comprehensive studies of risk factors of cancer development and progression and enables the design of novel strategies for prevention, screening, early detection and personalized treatment of cancer. Centers with expertise in cancer epidemiology, genetics, biology, early detection, and patient care can collaborate by using the iCaRe2 as a platform for cohort and population studies.
The purpose of the trial is to establish the tolerability of HuMax-TF-ADC in a mixed population of patients with specified solid tumors.
