About this trial

This is an interventional diagnostic trial for Sentinel Lymph Node

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 85 Years (Adult, Older Adult)FemaleDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Women of age 18 years and older at the time of informed consent.
  • Women with a pathologically proven endometrial carcinoma of any histologic subtype or grade, clinically stage I-II planned for primary surgery
  • A uterine size allowing minimally invasive surgery
  • Women must be able to understand and sign an informed consent in Swedish language.
  • Absence of any exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Non consenting patients
  • Ongoing pregnancy
  • Inability to understand written and/or oral study information
  • WHO performance status or conditions contraindicating adjuvant oncological treatment (WHO III or more)
  • Previous lower limb lymphedema ( only for the lymphedema part of study)
  • Evidence of locally advanced disease or intraabdominal/distant metastases at preoperative CT, MRI or ultrasonography.
  • Surgical contraindication to a laparoscopic approach or lymphadenectomy at surgeons discretion.
  • Anesthesiologic contraindication to a laparoscopic approach at the anesthetist's discretion
  • Allergy to Iodine
  • Patients with a known liver disease
  • Patients with a bleeding disorder or mandatory antithrombotic treatment.

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

SLN only

Arm Description

Pelvic SLN's defined by ICG injected cervically

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Detection rate of pelvic metastatic disease in endometrial cancer
The detection rate will be evaluated from a non-inferiority perspective based on a null-hypothesis of 4% less than an expected rate of 12% nodal metastases
Operative time used for the study intervention ( injection of ICG and identification and removal of sentinel lymph nodes
Exact measurements of time allocated for the SLN procedure as such.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Incidence of lymphedema after removal of sentinel lymph nodes
Objective measurement lymphedema defined by of leg volume before and after surgery
intraoperative adverse events associated with the study intervention
Detailed registration of adverse events associated with the SLN procedure as such

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Evaluation of removal of Sentinel lymph nodes only for detection of pelvic lymph node metastases in high risk and low risk endometrial cancer.
Detailed Description
Consecutive patients with- and low risk endometrial cancer will be approached for eligibility for inclusion in a study evaluating the detection rates of pelvic metastatic disease by detection and removal of Sentinel lymph nodes only, i.e with no further lymphadenectomy. A re-staging will be performed in case of metastatic Sentinel lymph nodes to guide adjuvant treatment. The detection rate will be evaluated from a non-inferiority perspective against the expected rate of nodal metastases based on detailed final histological data. Adverse events related the intervention ( Injection of tracer (ICG) and removal of sentinel nodes), time for the intervention, and an objective evaluation of lymphatic complications (lymphoedema) will be performed in addition to the use of a validated lymphoedema QOL questionnaire.
