Filter by:RATIONALE: The use of intrauterine levonorgestrel may prevent atypical endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial cancer in women with hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer or Lynch syndrome. It is not yet known whether intrauterine levonorgestrel and observation are more effective than observation alone in preventing atypical endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial cancer in women with hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer or Lynch syndrome. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying intrauterine levonorgestrel and observation to see how well they work compared with observation alone in preventing atypical endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial cancer in women with hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer or Lynch syndrome.
This randomized phase II trial is studying how well megestrol works in treating patients with endometrial neoplasia or endometrial hyperplasia. Estrogen can cause the growth of endometrial cancer cells. Hormone therapy using megestrol may fight endometrial cancer by blocking the use of estrogen by the abnormal cells.
The study aims to evaluate the long-term efficacy and prognosis of hysteroscopic resection and coagulation of the base of endometrial polyps with focal atypia in fertile women.
The purpose of this trial is to study the efficacy, toxicity, and tolerability of a standard hormonal regimen of Megestrol Acetate (Megace) in the treatment of Atypical Endometrial Hyperplasia or well to moderately differentiated endometrial carcinoma.
The aim of this study is to verify the anti-estrogenic activity of Genistein, on the "non atypical endometrial hyperplasia", in premenopausal women.
This study, conducted jointly by the National Cancer Institute and the Kaiser Permanente Center for Health Research Northwest (KPCHRN) in Portland, Oregon, will lay the groundwork for a future study to identify precursors of endometrial cancer; that is, conditions that precede development of cancer of the lining of the uterus. The diagnosis of endometrial hyperplasia (a condition of abnormal proliferation of endometrial tissue) includes most precursors of endometrial cancer, as well as many benign conditions. Currently, three methods of classifying endometrial cancer precursors have been suggested based on endometrial hyperplasia findings, but it is not known which classification best predicts cancer risk. This study will examine surgical specimens of hyperplasia and cancer from women diagnosed with endometrial cancer at least 2 years after a diagnosis of endometrial hyperplasia. Investigators will estimate the percentage of cases with different degrees of hyperplasia, and assess the subsequent cancers that developed. This will allow them to rank hyperplasia lesions according to cancer risk and identify lesions that represent the most immediate cancer precursors. They will also review patients medical charts for information related to cancer risk and treatment. Study participants will include women enrolled in the KPCHRN who are 40 years of age or older and who were diagnosed with endometrial cancer at least 2 years after being diagnosed with endometrial hyperplasia.
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.
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.
The purpose of this research is to determine the effectiveness of the intrauterine device (IUD) called Mirena when compared to the Provera tablets used in treating this condition.
To conduct a three-armed trial assessing the effect of soy phytoestrogens on menopausal complaints, plasma lipids and lipoproteins, vaginal bleeding and endometrial proliferation, and health related quality of life.
