Active clinical trials for "Endometrial Neoplasms"

Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as ixabepilone, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. This phase II trial is studying how well ixabepilone works in treating patients with recurrent or persistent endometrial cancer.

This phase II trial studies how well temsirolimus works in treating patients with endometrial cancer that has spread to other parts of the body or has spread from where it started to nearby tissue or lymph nodes and has come back after a period of time during which the cancer could not be detected. Temsirolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

RATIONALE: Hormone therapy may be an effective treatment for endometrial cancer. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of danazol in treating patients with advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of ecteinascidin 743 in treating patients who have advanced soft tissue sarcoma.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of irofulven in treating patients who have persistent or recurrent refractory endometrial cancer.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether or not there are more complications in the extraperitoneal compared with the transperitoneal approach for laparoscopic aortic lymphadenectomy for the surgical staging of endometrial or ovarian cancer

The purpose of this trial is to determine that sort term calorie restriction will affect tumor biology in biopsy proven breast, endometrial or prostate cancers, which will positively impact biomarkers including miR-21, an onco-miR known to impact cancer outcomes.

The prevention of lymphoceles was assessed using collagen patch coated with the human coagulation factors (TachoSil, Nycomed International Management GmbH, Zurich, Switzerland; NCT Number ICMJE NCT01192022; Other Study ID Numbers ICMJE TC-2402-040-SP; U1111-1130-9121 Registry Identifier: WHO) on 50 consecutive patients with endometrial and cervical cancer stages IB to II who had undergone open hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy (PL). Methods: Each patient was simultaneously randomized in two groups: as a control (side without Tachosil applied) and study group (side with Tachosil applied). All surgical parameters were collected and patients underwent ultrasound examination on postoperative days 1, 6, and 30, and at the end of treatment.

This is an interventional trial to introduce two short animated videos into preoperative counseling/consent and to compare patient comprehension and satisfaction with a multimedia approach compared to standard of care currently. The investigators anticipate that patients will retain more information about their surgery and peri-operative care and will be more satisfied with a multimedia approach.

This is a prospective observational multicentric study. The aim is to evaluate the incidence of endometrial cancer and endometrial atypical hyperplasia in patients with previous breast cancer, treated with different adjuvant therapies. The second aim is to identify ultrasonographic soft markers related with endometrial cancer or atipycal hyperplasia.
