Using DNA markers to find endometrial cancer in postmenopausal bleeding
Part of Cancer, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests whether DNA changes in urine, vaginal, or cervical samples can help find endometrial cancer earlier in women with postmenopausal bleeding. If you are having tests for this bleeding, your samples could help improve detection.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have had vaginal bleeding after not having a period for 12 months or more (postmenopausal bleeding).
- You are being checked for endometrial cancer at a gynecology clinic.
- You are being treated in the Central or Southern Denmark health regions.
- You can read and understand Danish and give written permission to join the study.
- You have not had a hysterectomy (removal of the uterus).
- You do not have another cancer diagnosis besides the possible endometrial cancer.

This study tests if a DNA test in urine and vaginal samples you collect at home can help find endometrial cancer. It compares results from people with the cancer to healthy volunteers.
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 tests whether a DNA-based cervical smear can find endometrial cancer early in women at higher risk. It looks at women scheduled for a hysteroscopy or receiving hormone therapy.
This study tests whether DNA markers in vaginal fluid can help detect endometrial cancer. You'll provide a sample and take part in a virtual interview.
This study uses two simple tests (a cell sample from the uterus and a cervical DNA test) to find endometrial cancer early and to check how well fertility-sparing treatment is working.
This study is testing whether a blood test that looks at small molecules (metabolites) can help find endometrial cancer early in post-menopausal women. If you are between 50 and 80 years old and have not had a hysterectomy or certain hormone treatments, you may be able to join.
