Study summary

The PURE trial is a prospective multicenter phase II study evaluating the safety and feasibility of ultra-hypofractionated adjuvant pelvic radiotherapy in patients with high-intermediate-risk and high-risk endometrial cancer following surgery. The study investigates a treatment regimen consisting of 27.5 Gy delivered in five fractions using modern image-guided IMRT/VMAT techniques. The primary objective is to assess acute gastrointestinal and genitourinary toxicity according to CTCAE version 5.0.

Read the detailed description

PURE is a prospective multicenter phase II safety study designed to evaluate ultra-hypofractionated adjuvant pelvic radiotherapy in patients with high-intermediate-risk and high-risk endometrial cancer. Eligible patients will receive 27.5 Gy in five fractions delivered over approximately two weeks using image-guided IMRT/VMAT. The study aims to determine whether this regimen achieves acceptable toxicity while preserving treatment efficacy and quality of life. Secondary endpoints include late toxicity, treatment compliance, patient-reported outcomes, locoregional control, disease-free survival, and overall survival. The study employs a Simon optimal two-stage design and plans to enroll 46 evaluable patients.

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

  1. Aged > 18 years.
  2. confirmed diagnosis of endometrial cancer post hysterectomy: endometrial adenocarcinoma, serous or clear cell carcinoma, or carcinosarcoma or dedifferentiated carcinoma.
  3. Patients candidates for pelvic (Cht)EBRT treatment (+/- vaginal cuff brachytherapy), categorized by Intermediate-high risk and high risk primary endometrial cancer based on recent ESGO/ESTRO/ESMO Guidelines (2025).
  4. Patient is willing and able to give to participate in this clinical trial.
  5. Patient must be willing and able to complete the QLQ-C30 questionnaire with EN-24 companion as described in the study protocol
  6. Possibility of fiducial marker placement on vaginal vault.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Prior pelvic or abdominal radiation therapy delivered.
  2. Inflamatory bowel disease of other to pelvic radiotherapy.
  3. Previous abdominal or pelvic complicated surgery.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(4)

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.

Histologically or cytologically confirmed

The diagnosis was confirmed by looking at a sample under a microscope: tissue from a biopsy or surgery (histology), or cells from a fluid or needle sample (cytology).

Your pathology report is the document that shows this.

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.

Informed consent

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.

Contraindication

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.

  • RadiationUltra-hypofractionation schedule of 27.5Gy in 5 fractions on image-guided adjuvant pelvic IMRT/VMAT radiotherapy

    Classically, the dose prescribed for adjuvant treatment of endometrial cancer were 45-50Gy in conventional fractionation 1.8Gy/fx, in a total 25-28fx. The shedule proposed on this prospective cohort of 27.5Gy in 5 fractions on image-guided adjuvant pelvic IMRT/VMAT radiotherapy.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Acute GI and GU toxicity

    The proportion of participants experiencing acute GI and GU toxicity will be reported, grade by CTCAE (G0-G5). Acute toxicity will be defined during treatment, at 1 and 3 months after the end of treatment.

    Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 3 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. Late GI and GU toxicity

    The proportion of participants experiencing late GI and GU toxicity will be reported, grade by CTCAE (G0-G5). Late toxicity will be defined at 6 and 12 months after the end of treatment.

    Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 12 months

  2. Evaluate patient-reported quality-of-life EORTC QLQ-C30

    Patient reported quality of life will be assessed using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaires (QLQ) C30 (EORTC QLQ-C30) for both the acute and late phases, during treatment, at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after treatment. The EORTC QLQ-C30 uses a 4-point response scale for most items: 1 = not at all, 2 = a little, 3 = quite a bit, and 4 = very much. A higher score indicates worse quality of life.

    Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 12 months

  3. Evaluate patient-reported quality-of-life EORTC QLQ-EN24

    Patient reported quality of life will be assessed using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaires Endometrial Cancer Module (EORTC QLQ-EN24) for both the acute and late phases, during treatment, at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after treatment. The EORTC QLQ-EN24 uses a 4-point response scale for most items: 1 = not at all, 2 = a little, 3 = quite a bit, and 4 = very much. A higher score indicates worse quality of life.

    Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 12 months

  4. Local control

    Evaluating absence of vaginal cuff recurrence during follows-up. Local control will be estimated using Kaplan-Meier analysis at 5 years.

    Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 5 years

  5. Regional control

    Evaluating absence of pelvic recurrence during follows-up. Local control will be estimated using Kaplan-Meier analysis at 5 years.

    Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 5 years

  6. Distant control

    Evaluating absence of distant recurrence during follows-up. Local control will be estimated using Kaplan-Meier analysis at 5 years.

    Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 5 years

  7. Disease free survival

    Evaluating patient survival free from any disease progression (local, regional, or distant) or death from any cause. Progression-free survival will be estimated using Kaplan-Meier analysis at 5 years.

    Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 5 years

Other outcomes

  1. Dosimetry caractheristics report

    Dosimetry descriptive report on target coverage and OAR constrains

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Started Mar 2026 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Mar 2030, 48 months after the start.

Of 195 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Endometrial Neoplasms, half reached primary completion within 44 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 20 and three quarters within 76. This study's planned 48 months is close to that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 201 studies reached it within 43 months; a quarter within 19 and three quarters within 76.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

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.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Aug 25, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
