5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Comparison of the effectiveness metformin versus placebo for deceasing proliferative marker Ki-67 expression in endometrial tumours when given for 4 weeks before hysterectomy in endometrial cancer cells.
Detailed Description
Endometrial cancer is one of the most common gynecological cancers. Preclinical studies in endometrial cancer (EC) show that metformin reduces cellular proliferation by PI3K-AKT-mTOR inhibition. The investigators tested the hypothesis that short-term presurgical metformin reduces cellular proliferation in endometrial cancer. However, no good quality of evidence base supports the effectiveness of metformin for deceasing proliferative marker in endometrial cancer.
