About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the feasibility and outcome of fertility-sparing therapy in Stage IA G1-G2 Endometrial Cancer with less than 1/2 myometrial invasion. Researchers will render participants indication-extended fertility-sparing therapy. Researchers will compare the myometrial invasion group with the no myometrial invasion group to see if it is possible to propose an extension indication of fertility-sparing therapy for endometrial cancer.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Stage IA (FIGO 2009) ;

Pathological diagnosis: endometrial adenocarcinoma G1-G2;

MRI or ultrasound: tumor limited to endometrium or invading less than 1/2 of myometrium;

18 years old ≤ Age ≤ 45 years old;

Disqualifiers

Complicated with any other malignancy;

Contraindications to conservative treatment;

Contraindications to progestin use;

Contraindications to pregnancy, or judged by the researcher to be unfit for pregnancy or delivery.

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Indication-extended Fertility-sparing Therapy

    Combination product

    Patients will receive medroxyprogesterone acetate ("FARLUTAL") 250-500mg/d or megestrol acetate ("YiLiZhi") 160-320mg/d orally. If there is no response after 6 months of treatment, change the regimen to levonorgestrel intrauterine system ("Mirena") and gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist ("Leuprorelin", "Goserelin" or "Triptorelin") 3.75mg/28d injection subcutaneously. After complete remission, the same regimen will be used for consolidation treatment for another 1-3 months. Subsequently, if the patient has no intention of pregnancy, render maintenance treatment ("Mirena", "Progesterone", "Dydrogesterone", or combined oral contraceptive). Otherwise, the patient will be encouraged to conceive either by an expectation for 3-6 months, or by assisted reproductive technology. Indications for stopping fertility-sparing therapy: 1) disease progression; 2) no response after 9 months of treatment; 3) repeated recurrence; 4) no longer require sparing fertility; 5) serious adverse reactions.
