Complete pathological response following levonorgestrel intrauterine device in clinically stage 1 endometrial adenocarcinoma: Results of a randomized clinical trial
Gynecologic oncology(2021)
摘要
Purpose. Intrauterine levonorgestrel (LNG-IUD) is used to treat patients with endometrial adenocarcinoma (EAC) and endometrial hyperplasia with atypia (EHA) but limited evidence is available on its effectiveness. The study de term fined the extent to which LNG-IUD with or without metformin (M) or weight loss (WL) achieves a pathological complete response (pCR) in patients with EAC or EHA. Patients and methods. This phase II randomized controlled clinical trial enrolled patients with histologically confirmed, clinically stage 1 GIGO grade 1 EAC or EHA a body mass index > 30 kg/m2; a depth of myometrial invasion of less than 50% on MRI; a serum CA125 <= 30 U/mL. All patients received LNG-IUD and were randomized to observation (OBS), M (500 mg orally twice daily), or WL (pooled analysis). The primary outcome measure was the proportion of patients developing a pCR (defined as absence of any evidence of EAC or EHA) after 6 months. Results. From December 2012 to October 2019, 165 patients were enrolled and 154 completed the 6-months follow up. Women had a mean age of 53 years, and a mean BMI of 48 kg/m 2 . Ninety-six patients were diagnosed with EAC (58%) and 69 patients with EHA (42%). Thirty-five participants were randomized to OBS, 36 to WL and 47 to M (10 patients were withdrawn). After 6 months the rate of pCR was 61% (95% Cl 42% to 77%) for OBS, 67% (95% CI 48% to 82%) for WL and 57% (95% CI 41% to 72%) for M. Across the three treatment groups, the pCR was 82% and 43% for EHA and EAC, respectively. Conclusion. Complete response rates at 6 months were encouraging for patients with EAC and EHA across the three groups. (C) 2021 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Inc.
