Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and toxicity of early stage endometrial cancer based on molecular classification and conventional risk stratification adjuvant therapy decision-making, and to provide high-quality evidence-based medical evidence for individualized adjuvant therapy selection under the guidance of fine stratification system of endometrial cancer.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is an investigator-initiated prospective, national multicentre, phase III, randomised, open, non-inferiority clinical study. The study hypothesis is that adjuvant radiotherapy decision for early-stage endometrial cancer which is based on molecular classification can achieve de-escalation of adjuvant treatment without reducing local tumour control and survival, thereby potentially further reducing radiotherapy-related toxicity and improving quality of life, compared to using conventional risk stratification. The primary endpoint of this study is the 3-year local recurrence rate.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Molecular classification based treatment

Establishment of molecular-clinicopathological classification to make adjuvant treatment decisions: observation for favourable group; vaginal brachytherapy(VBT) for intermediate group; external beam radiotherapy(EBRT) for unfavourable group.

Molecular-clinicopathological classification strategy:Favourable group:POLE-mutated. CTNNB1(wide-type)with IA (G1-3) or IB(G1-2)and LVSI(lymph-vascular space invasion) focal/-.

Intermediate group:MMRD and LVSI focal/-. CTNNB1(wide-type) and IB(G3) or II with LVSI focal/-. CTNNB1-mutated and IA(G1-3) or IB (G1-2) with LVSI focal/-.

Unfavourable group: TP53 mutation. CTNNB1-mutated and IB (G3) or II. Substantial LVSI.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Vaginal brachytherapy

Intervention Type RADIATION

High-dose rate vaginal brachytherapy (VBT) was delivered with a vaginal cylinder.For VBT administered alone, the dose is recommended: 3 fractions of 7 Gy or 5 fractions of 6 Gy or 6 fractions of 5 Gy.

For VBT administered after completion of EBRT: 2-3 fractions of 4-6 Gy.

Pelvic external beam radiotherapy

Intervention Type RADIATION

EBRT was delivered to the pelvic area using a total dose of 45-50.4Gy in 25-28 fractions over 5-6 weeks with the intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) technique, three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) modality

Observation

Intervention Type OTHER

No radiotherapy is administrated, but active follow-up and quality of life questionnaires is needed after surgery.

Chemotherapy

Intervention Type DRUG

Intravenous concurrent or sequential adjuvant chemotherapy consists of carboplatin/paclitaxel, cisplatin/doxorubicin or cisplatin/doxorubicin/paclitaxel, etc.

Conventional risk stratification based treatment

Adjuvant vaginal brachytherapy alone for intermediate risk patients (IA G1-2 with LVSI present or age\>60, IA G3 or IB G1-2 regardless of LVSI status).

EBRT for high-intermediate risk (stage I B with G3, or stage II)

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR
