Detecting endometrial cancer with a risk model
Part of Cancer, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study uses a risk model to detect endometrial cancer in people with unexplained abnormal uterine bleeding. It aims to find better ways to identify cancer early without relying only on invasive biopsies.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are age 40 or older
- You have unexplained abnormal bleeding from your uterus (not caused by an IUD or other known reason)
- You still have your uterus (not removed)
- You have been referred for an endometrial biopsy (a sample taken from your uterus lining)
- You have not had a vaginal infection, pelvic radiation, or a uterine sample taken in the past 3 months
- You have not started hormone therapy (like birth control, HRT, or an IUD) in the past year unless it is tamoxifen

This study looks at hormones in your urine to learn more about how uterine cancer develops in people with abnormal uterine bleeding. It may help find new ways to detect risk or catch problems earlier.
This study tests a simple, non-invasive method to detect endometrial cancer in women after menopause who have abnormal bleeding. It aims to find cancer early in those at higher risk, such as women with certain genetic conditions or risk factors.
This trial looks at better ways to predict how aggressive your endometrial cancer is before surgery, so doctors can decide if they need to check your lymph nodes. It may help tailor your treatment to avoid unnecessary procedures.
This study looks for “methylated DNA markers” (special DNA patterns) to help detect endometrial, ovarian, and cervical cancers, and to support doctors around planned procedures. It may help find cancer earlier or better sort out who needs closer treatment.
This study looks at combining genetic testing with surgical exams to better understand endometrial cancer. It may help doctors see which treatments could work best for you.
This study observes patients who need a scope exam or scraping of the uterus to look for conditions like polyps, fibroids, or cancer. It aims to gather information to improve care.
