Endometrial Cancer Stage I

Brief summary

We want to make a comparison of PD-1 inhibitor combined with progesterone versus progesterone alone in the treatment of early stage endometrial cancer patients who want to preserve fertility.

Detailed description

Approximately 63,400 new cases of endometrial cancer are diagnosed annually in China. While the initial treatment for early-stage disease is surgical staging with lymphadenectomy, it is apparently inappropriate for young patients who want to preserve fertility. Currently the standardize treatment for these patients are high-dose progesterone, which will be effective in approximately 40\ 70% patients. Mirena have been used recently as a new available treatment option, however, no concrete evidence shows it is more effective than the traditional progesterone treatment. PD-1 inhibitor has been utilized as a salvage treatment in many cancers including ovarian cancer, cervical cancer, lung cancer, gastric cancer and endometrial cancer. As endometrial cancer showed high microsatellite instability-high/deficient mismatch repair (MSI-H/dMMR) rates, it is assumed to be highly responsive to PD-1 inhibitor treatment. Published clinical trial results showed that PD-1 inhibitor treatment was effective in 6/24 late-stage endometrial cancer patients, with little or mild side effects. Here we want to investigate the efficacy of PD-1 inhibitor combined with progesterone in early stage endometrial cancer patients who want to preserve fertility.

MeasureTime frameDescription
Pathologic complete remission rate of endometrial curettage tissues6 monthsHysteroscopy was performed 6 months after treatment. If the pathological results are normal, it is considered to be complete remission
Pathologic partial remission rate of endometrial curettage tissues6 monthsHysteroscopy was performed 6 months after treatment. If the pathological results showed hyperplasia, it is considered to be partial remission
