About this trial
The PURE trial is a prospective multicenter phase II study evaluating the safety and feasibility of ultra-hypofractionated adjuvant pelvic radiotherapy in patients with high-intermediate-risk and high-risk endometrial cancer following surgery. The study investigates a treatment regimen consisting of 27.5 Gy delivered in five fractions using modern image-guided IMRT/VMAT techniques. The primary objective is to assess acute gastrointestinal and genitourinary toxicity according to CTCAE version 5.0.
