A Study of Short-Course Radiation Therapy With Chemotherapy in People With Endometrial Cancer

  • Surgery must have included a hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, and pelvic lymph node surgical assessment (sentinel lymph node mapping and/or sampling). Para-aortic lymph node surgical assessment is optional.
  • Patients must have FIGO (2009) stage IIIA or IIIC1 disease (as determined by surgical staging).
  • Patients must consent to testing with MSK-IMPACT part A and are encouraged to consent to both parts A and C.
  • Age ≥ 18 years.
  • Patients must have an Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) ≥ 70 (or ECOG 0 or 1).
  • Neurologic function: Neuropathy (sensory and motor) grade ≤ 1.
  • No residual gross disease after surgery.
  • No prior radiation therapy or chemotherapy for treatment of endometrial cancer.
  • No active infection requiring antibiotics, except for uncomplicated urinary tract infection.
  • Patients must have adequate organ function, defined by the following laboratory results prior to first study treatment:
  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1500/mcL
  • Platelet count ≥ 100,000/mcL
  • AST/ALT ≤ 3X upper limit of normal (ULN)
  • Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5X ULN. Patients with known Gilbert's disease and a total bilirubin ≤ 3X ULN may be enrolled.
  • Creatinine ≤ 1.5X ULN
  • Entry into study is limited to no more than 12 weeks from the date of surgery.
  • Patients with a prior or concurrent malignancy whose natural history or treatment does not have the potential to interfere with the safety or efficacy assessment of the investigational regimen are eligible for this trial.
  • Patients of childbearing age will by definition have undergone hysterectomy and bilateral oophorectomy prior to study enrollment.
  • Participants must agree not to breastfeed during the study or for 150 days after the last dose of study treatment.

Exclusion criteria

  • Patients whose endometrial cancers harbor known pathogenic POLE mutations
  • Patients whose endometrial cancers are mismatch repair deficient, as determined by immunohistochemical staining for MLH1, PMS2, MSH2, and MSH6 and/or MSI-H
  • Active inflammatory bowel disease, such as Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis.
  • History or current evidence of any condition, therapy, or laboratory abnormality that might confound the results of the trial, interfere with the subject's participation for the full duration of the trial, or is not in the best interest of the subject to participate, in the opinion of the treating investigator. This includes but is not limited to: uncontrolled ventricular arrhythmia, recent (within 90 days) myocardial infarction, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, uncontrolled major seizure disorder, unstable spinal cord compression, and superior vena cava syndrome.

Frequently asked questions

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.

Is it safe to participate?

Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.

Will I be compensated?

Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.

Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?

When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.

Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?

Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.

How long does a clinical trial last?

Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
