NCT04214067
This phase III trial compares whether the addition of pembrolizumab to radiation therapy is more effective than radiation therapy alone in reducing the risk of cancer coming back (recurrence) in patients with newly diagnosed stage I-II endometrial cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. The addition of pembrolizumab to radiation treatment may be more effective than radiation treatment alone in reducing cancer recurrence.
NCT07628660
Endometrial sampling is a commonly performed gynecological procedure used for the diagnosis of abnormal uterine bleeding and endometrial abnormalities. Different anesthetic techniques may be used during the procedure, including sedo-analgesia and local anesthesia. The purpose of this prospective observational study is to evaluate whether the anesthetic technique used during endometrial sampling affects female sexual function one month after the procedure. Female sexual function will be assessed using the validated Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) questionnaire. A total of 210 women undergoing endometrial sampling at Prof. Dr. Cemil Taşcıoğlu City Hospital will be enrolled. Participants will be assigned to groups according to the anesthetic technique used during their routine clinical care. FSFI scores obtained at the one-month follow-up visit will be compared between women who underwent the procedure under sedo-analgesia and those who received local anesthesia. Secondary analyses will include comparison of FSFI scores according to symptom status and histopathological diagnosis. The findings of this study may contribute to a better understanding of the impact of anesthetic techniques on postoperative sexual health and quality of life in women undergoing gynecological procedures.
NCT05538689
In this project, the proposition is that the use of daily dosed Myfembree ( a combination of relugolix with estradiol and norethindrone acetate), FDA-approved medication to treat heavy menses fibroid-related symptoms, has the potential to delay the recurrence of fibroid symptoms, prolong the improved quality of life and delay the need for re-intervention after uterine sparing surgery versus the routine standard of care.
NCT03880019
This phase II trial studies olaparib and temozolomide in treating patients with uterine leiomyosarcoma (LMS) that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced), that has spread from where it first started to other places in the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). PARPs are proteins that help repair DNA mutations. PARP inhibitors, such as olaparib, can keep PARP from working, so tumor cells can't repair themselves, and they may stop growing. Chemotherapy drugs, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving olaparib and temozolomide may work better than giving either drug alone in treating patients with LMS.
NCT05691504
This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of combination therapy with pelcitoclax (APG-1252) and cobimetinib in treating patients with ovarian and endometrial cancers that have come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). APG-1252 is a drug that inhibits activity of proteins that prevent cell death, leading to increased cell death and reduced cell growth. Cobimetinib is used in patients whose cancer has a mutated (changed) form of a gene called BRAF. It is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of an abnormal protein that signals cancer cells to multiply. This helps slow or stop the spread of cancer cells. Giving APG-1252 in combination with cobimetinib may shrink or stabilize tumor in patients with recurrent ovarian and endometrial cancers.
NCT05049538
This study is to find out how well liquid biopsies work as a non-invasive alternative to other methods of finding cancer cells (such as a tissue biopsy) in patients with endometrial cancer. A liquid biopsy is a blood test that may be able to find cancer cells. Collecting and storing samples of blood and tissue from patients with endometrial cancer to study in the laboratory may help doctors learn how the cells in the blood may change during treatment for uterine cancer.
NCT03914612
This phase III trial studies how well the combination of pembrolizumab, paclitaxel and carboplatin works compared with paclitaxel and carboplatin alone in treating patients with endometrial cancer that is stage III or IV, or has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Paclitaxel and carboplatin are chemotherapy drugs used as part of the usual treatment approach for this type of cancer. This study aims to assess if adding immunotherapy to these drugs is better or worse than the usual approach for treatment of this cancer.
NCT03660826
This phase II trial studies the effects of the combination of olaparib and durvalumab, cediranib and durvalumab, olaparib and capivasertib, and cediranib alone in treating patients with endometrial cancer that has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Olaparib, cediranib, and capivasertib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Durvalumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Testing the combinations may lower the chance of endometrial cancer growing or spreading compared to usual care.
NCT07501676
This study will test whether gentle electrical stimulation to nerves near the uterus can reduce pelvic pain after uterine fibroid embolization. The investigators hypothesize that participants receiving active TUNES stimulation will experience lower pain levels and improved early recovery compared to those receiving sham stimulation or standard care.
NCT02656550
This study aims to investigate the treatment of absolute uterine infertility (AUI) due to congenital or surgical absence of a uterus or presence of a nonfunctioning uterus. The investigators will follow a model based on a Swedish study to enroll 20 women with functioning ovaries and successfully transplant the uterus from either a living or cadaveric donor, with the goal of live birth after transplantation.
NCT05039801
To find the highest tolerable dose of IACS-6274 that can be given alone, in combination with bevacizumab and paclitaxel, or in combination with capivasertib to patients who have solid tumors. The safety and tolerability of the study drug(s) will also be studied.
NCT04704661
The dose escalation phase of this trial identifies the safety, side effects and best dose of ceralasertib (AZD6738) when given in combination with trastuzumab deruxtecan (DS-8201a) in treating patients with solid tumors that have a change (mutation) in the HER2 gene or protein and have spread to other places in the body (advanced). The dose expansion phase (phase Ib) of this trial compares how colorectal and gastroesophageal cancers with HER2 mutation respond to treatment with a combination of ceralasertib and trastuzumab deruxtecan versus trastuzumab deruxtecan alone. Ceralasertib may stop the growth of tumor cells and may kill them by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Trastuzumab deruxtecan is a monoclonal antibody, called trastuzumab, linked to a chemotherapy drug, called deruxtecan. Trastuzumab attaches to HER2 positive cancer cells in a targeted way and delivers deruxtecan to kill them. Ceralasertib and trastuzumab deruxtecan may be safe, tolerable and effective in treating patients with advanced solid tumors expressing the HER2 protein or gene.
NCT07474688
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and effectiveness of a fully enclosed protective device system in laparoscopic myomectomy to achieve tumor-free protection throughout the entire surgical procedure in women aged 28-46 years diagnosed with uterine fibroids who require laparoscopic myomectomy. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can the fully enclosed protective device system successfully achieve complete physical isolation of fibroid tissue during laparoscopic myomectomy and morcellation? Does the use of this device reduce the risk of tissue dissemination or leakage while maintaining acceptable surgical outcomes such as operative time, blood loss, and postoperative recovery? Participants will undergo laparoscopic myomectomy assisted by the fully enclosed protective device system. During the procedure, participants will: undergo laparoscopic removal of uterine fibroids using a fully enclosed protective isolation system have the fibroid dissected and contained within a protective bag during the entire procedure receive in-bag morcellation or fragmentation of fibroid tissue within a sealed environment be evaluated for operative outcomes including fibroid size, operative time, intraoperative blood loss, integrity of the protective bag, and postoperative hospital stay
NCT06349642

NCT00050752
This study will investigate what causes hereditary leiomyomatosis renal (kidney) cell cancer, or HLRCC, and how the disease is related to the development of kidney tumors. Leiomyomas are benign (non-cancerous) tumors arising from smooth muscle. HLRCC can cause various health problems. Some people develop red bumps on their skin that can be painful at times. Some women with HLRCC can develop leiomyomas of the uterus. In some families, people with HLRCC develop kidney tumors. This study will try to determine: * What gene changes (mutations) cause HLRCC * What kind of kidney tumors develop in HLRCC and how they grow * What the chance is that a person with HLRCC will develop a kidney tumor People with known or suspected HLRCC (and their family members of any age) may be eligible for this study. This includes people in families in which one or more members has skin leiomyoma and kidney cancer; skin leiomyoma and uterine leiomyoma; multiple skin leiomyomas; kidney cancer and uterine leiomyomas, or kidney cancer consistent with HLRCC, including, but not limited to, collecting duct or papillary, type II. Candidates will be screened with a physical examination, family history, and, for affected family members, a review of medical records, including pathology slides and computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans. Participants will undergo tests and procedures that may include the following: * Review of medical records, x-rays, and tissue slides * Physical examination and family history * Skin examination * Gynecological examination for women * Interviews with a cancer doctor, cancer nurses, kidney surgeon, and genetic counselor * Blood tests for: 1. Genetic research to identify the gene responsible for HLRCC 2. Evaluation of liver, kidney, heart, pancreas, and thyroid function 3. Complete blood count and clotting profile 4. Pregnancy test for pre-menopausal women 5. PSA test for prostate cancer in men over age 40 * CT or MRI scans (for participants 15 years of age and older only) * Skin biopsy (surgical removal of a small sample of skin tissue) * Cheek swab or mouth rinse to collect cells for genetic analysis * Medical photographs of lesions * Questionnaire When the tests are completed, participants will discuss the results with a doctor and possibly a genetic nurse or genetic counselor. The genetic findings will not be revealed to participants because their meaning and implications may not yet be understood. Participants may be asked to return to NIH from every 3 months to every 3 years, depending on their condition, for follow-up examinations and tests. ...
NCT01970722
This phase I trial studies the side effects and how well surgery and heated chemotherapy with or without non-heated chemotherapy after surgery works in treating patients with ovarian, fallopian tube, uterine, or peritoneal cancer. Giving a dose of heated chemotherapy into the abdomen during surgery that is done to remove ovarian, fallopian tube, uterine, or peritoneal cancer may help lower the risk of the cancer coming back. Giving unheated chemotherapy drugs directly into the abdomen after surgery may kill more tumor cells.
NCT07431788
This prospective, single-center, randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effect of uterine manipulator use during total abdominal hysterectomy on postoperative female sexual function at 3 months, assessed by the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI). Secondary outcomes include operative time, perioperative hemoglobin change, postoperative pain (VAS), hospital stay duration, and 30-day complications.
NCT05147558
The purpose of this study to find out whether the combination of lenvatinib and pembrolizumab is an effective treatment for advanced uterine carcinosarcoma. The researchers will also do tests to find out whether biomarkers in the blood can predict the cancer's response to the study treatment. A biomarker is a biological molecule found in blood, other body fluids, or tissues that is a sign of a normal or abnormal process, or of a condition or disease. A biomarker may be used to see how well the body responds to a treatment for a disease or condition
NCT03304678
Background: Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a rare, progressive disease. It usually affects women in the prime of their lives. It typically results in lung destruction. Studies have shown that a drug called sirolimus stabilizes lung function in people with LAM. But researchers do not know what drug dose and blood serum levels are needed to reach this stability. Researchers want to learn more about the right dose of sirolimus for people with LAM. Objective: To determine if blood and urine markers after 1 dose and again after 9 months can be used to evaluate the correct dose of sirolimus for people with LAM. Eligibility: Women ages 18-90 with LAM whose doctors have decided they should start taking sirolimus to treat it. Design: At visit 1, participants will take their first dose of sirolimus by mouth at the clinic. They will have blood and urine collected. Participants will take 1 tablet of the study drug each day. Visit 2 will be 3 months after visit 1. Participants will have blood and urine collected. Visit 3 will be 9 months after visit 1. Participants will have blood and urine collected. Participant samples will be stored in a secure place. No personal data will be connected to them.
NCT05334069
This study collects blood and tissue samples from patients with cancer and without cancer to evaluate tests for early cancer detection. Collecting and storing samples of blood and tissue from patients with and without cancer to study in the laboratory may help researchers develop tests for the early detection of cancers.
