Primary end points:
This clinical trial is aimed to analyze the effectiveness of Levonorgestrel-Releasing Intrauterine System (LNG-IUS, Mirena®) in the fertility-sparing treatment of atypical endometrial hyperplasia and early endometrial carcinoma, including pathology response and pregnancy outcome.
Second end points:
To analyze the appearances of side-effects.

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Cancer that has spread from where it began to other parts of the body. “Metastatic” cancer is cancer that has spread this way.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.
Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.
Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.

The enrolled patient (endometrial cancer without contraindication of oral high dose progesterone) is allocated to one of three groups, MPA only, MPA+LNG-IUS, LNG-IUS only, by randomization. Continuous treatment for 3 months is one cycle. Hysteroscopic evaluation and biopsy will procedure every cycle. Patients with partial response or in stable condition, after 2 cycles, will receive continuous treatment for one more cycle again. Patients with complete response after 2 or 3 cycles are encouraged to pregnancy. The consideration of giving up fertility-sparing treatment is recommended: 1) if patient have documented progression on the biopsies; 2) if endometrial cancer is still present after 3 cycles.

Pathologic Response
Pathologic response to medicine treatment is categorized as complete response (CR), partial response (PR), no change (NC), and progressive disease (PD). CR is defined as the absence of any hyperplastic or cancerous lesion. PR is defined as the residual lesion with degeneration and atrophy of endometrial glands. NC is defined as residual lesion without degeneration or atrophy of endometrial glands. PD is defined as the appearance of endometrial cancer for EAH and grade 2 (G2) or 3 for EC.
Time frame: 6-12 months
Pregnancy Rate
The percentage of successful pregnancies in the CR patients.
Time frame: 7-144 months
Live Birth Rate
The percentage of successfully alive baby delivery in the pregnant patients.
Time frame: 16-144 months
Side-Affects Rate
The appearances of side-effects include weight gain, irregular vaginal bleeding, breast pain, appetite changes, nausea, vomiting, rash, jaundice, thromboembolism, hypertension, liver dysfunction, kidney dysfunction, glucose intolerance, and diabetes.
Time frame: 1-144 months
