Study population

Patients receiving routine clinical care within participating primary care, gynecology, oncology, and Veterans Affairs health systems across rural, urban, and suburban regions of the United States.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

Cohort 1 Participants:

  • Age ≥ 45 years, OR age ≥ 18 years with at least one risk factor
  • Diagnosed with abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB)
  • Planning standard-of-care endometrial tissue sampling to assess for endometrial cancer (EC) or atypical endometrial hyperplasia/endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia (AEH/EIN)

Cohort 2 Participants:

  • Age ≥ 18 years
  • Newly diagnosed, -confirmed EC or AEH/EIN
  • Planning initial management for their endometrial pathology

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria

  • Prior partial or complete hysterectomy
  • Current pregnancy
  • Prior pelvic or vaginal radiotherapy
  • Chemotherapy within past 5 years (except tamoxifen)
  • Any condition judged by the Investigator to preclude participation

Additional for Cohort 1:

  • Cancer diagnosis within past 5 years (except non-gynecologic skin cancer)
  • Current -proven cervical, vaginal, or vulvar cancer, or lower genital tract dysplasia
  • Current biopsy-proven endometrial cancer, hyperplasia, or benign polyp
  • Benign endometrial biopsy within last month

Additional for Cohort 2:

  • Cancer diagnosis other than EC within past 5 years (except non-gynecologic skin cancer)
  • Prior cervical cancer or biopsy-proven cervical dysplasia
  • Surgery for recurrent EC
  • Preoperative chemotherapy or radiotherapy for current EC
  • Prior treatment or surgery to remove target pathology during current episode
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

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.

Biopsy and archival tissue

A biopsy takes a small piece of tissue to examine. “Archival tissue” is a sample already taken, for example at diagnosis, and kept by the hospital.

Whether a stored sample will do depends on when it was taken, how much there is and what the study needs. Ask whether the study accepts your stored sample or needs a new biopsy.

Adjuvant and neoadjuvant

Neoadjuvant treatment is given before the main treatment (usually surgery), often to shrink a tumour. Adjuvant treatment is given after it, to lower the chance of the cancer coming back.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Collection of clinically characterized vaginal fluid specimens

    Vaginal fluid specimens will be collected during a standard clinical exam using a swab-based collection method. Specimens will be used for research purposes to support the development of biomarker assays. No specific biomarkers or analytical methods are defined as part of this study.

    Time frame: Within 90 days of enrollment.

  2. Clinical data for biomarker assay development and evaluation

    Clinical information will be collected as part of routine study participation and used to describe the study population and support research analyses. Data will be used in aggregate to contextualize research findings and inform future assay development.

    Time frame: Within 90 days of enrollment

  3. Collection devices for detection

    Specimens will be collected using swab-based collection devices intended solely for specimen collection. These devices do not provide diagnostic results and are not used for clinical decision-making.

    Time frame: Within 90 days of enrollment

  4. Characterization of endometrial neoplasia, other neoplasms, or underlying causes

    Characterization will be based on existing clinical assessments and diagnoses obtained through standard medical care. The study does not establish diagnostic criteria or endpoints and is intended for research and development purposes only.

    Time frame: Within 90 days of enrollment

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
