Weight-loss Drug for Fertility-Sparing Treatment of Atypical Hyperplasia and Low-grade Cancer of the Endometrium

Sponsor: GynOncTrials

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

The incidence of endometrial cancer is increasing at an alarming rate. This trend parallels the rising rate of obesity, the most significant risk factor for endometrial cancer. Young women with obesity and endometrial cancer or atypical hyperplasia who want to maintain their fertility are treated with progestin therapy, such as progestin intra-uterine device (pIUD), which is associated with a mediocre response rate and high recurrence rate, and does not address the underlying cause, obesity. Therefore, the investigators want to assess whether the addition of a weight-loss drug to pIUD will improve their oncologic, reproductive and metabolic outcomes.
