Brief summary

To explore the treatment efficacy of Progesterone Therapeutic Regimen Plus Amlodipine in patients with early endometrial carcinoma (EEC) for conservative treatment.

Detailed description

After diagnosed of EEC by hysteroscopy, patients meet the study criteria will be enrolled. The age, height, weight, waistline, blood pressure, drug load, basic history of infertility and family cancer will be collected. Blood tests, including calcium, albumin, fasting blood glucose (FBG), fasting insulin (FINS), blood lipids, sex hormone levels, anti-müllerian hormone (AMH) and renal/liver function tests will be performed before treatment to evacuate their basic conditions. Patients with endometrial cancer who met the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into the control group and the experimental group in a 1:1 ratio according to the random numbers generated in advance. The administration regimen for the two groups was as follows: Control group: progesterone regimen (oral medroxyprogesterone acetate tablet 250mg-500mg/ day or Mirena +GnRHa 3.75mg subcutaneous injection monthly); Trial group: progesterone regimen (oral medroxyprogesterone acetate tablet 250mg-500mg/ day or Mirena +GnRHa3.75mg subcutaneous injection monthly) combined with Amlodipine (oral Amlodipine 5mg/ day); The specific selection of progesterone regimen was based on whether the patients had oral progesterone contraindications and if BMI≥28kg/m2 was not suitable for oral progesterone, Mirena +GnRHa regimen was selected. The choice of Amlodipine is based on the results that Amlodipine can inhibite growth in several endometrial cancer cells, PDX model and patient-derived cells. For patients remained SD after 9 months of treatment but refused hysterectomy, a multiple disciplinary discussion would be held for individual case, and alternative treatment would be given. Maintenance treatment will be recommended for patients with CR, and participants will be followed up for at least 1 year.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Pathological cumulative complete response rate after 6 months treatmentDay 1:take medication orally every day;Every three months, undergo hysteroscopy to obtain endometrium for HE and IHC of ER/PR; assessed up to 6-7 monthsNo endometrioid carcinoma or any proliferative lesion is found by pathology; imaging examination shows no evidence of a tumor

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Pathological cumulative complete response rate after 12 months treatmentassessed up to 12 monthsThe ratio of woman achieved CR after 12 months treatment
Recurrence rateDay 1:take medication orally every day;Every three months, undergo hysteroscopy to obtain endometrium for HE and IHC of ER/PR; up to 12 months after the end of treatment.After complete remission, there is evidence of recurrence in pathology, and the imaging examination shows that the lesion recurrences.
Pregnancy rateDay 1:take medication orally every day;Every three months, undergo hysteroscopy to obtain endometrium for HE and IHC of ER/PR; Through study completion, an average of 1 yearA pregnancy test shows pregnancy after CR.
Pathological biomarkerDay 1:take medication orally every day;Every three months, undergo hysteroscopy to obtain endometrium for HE and IHC of ER/PR; Through study completion, an average of 1 yearpathological markers(such as Ki-67, estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, p53, PTEN, MLH1, PMS2, MSH2, and MSH6) at each hysteroscopy
Adverse reactionsDay 1:take medication orally every day;Every three months, serological testing confirms the effects of drugs on the liver and kidneys; Through study completion, an average of 1 yearAny unfavorable response resulting from the administration of any pharmaceutical agent utilized as part of the therapeutic regimen.
