Fasting and Exercise for Early-Stage Endometrial Cancer
Part of Cancer, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether fasting (not eating for extended periods) and exercise before surgery might help improve outcomes for women with early-stage endometrial cancer. Participants will be randomly assigned to either practice fasting and exercise or receive standard care.

This study tests whether combining exercise with a special diet can improve how your body processes energy (metabolism) before you have surgery to remove the cancer. It is for people with early-stage endometrial cancer who haven't yet started treatment.
This trial tests whether alternating between a fasting day and a normal eating day can help people recovering from gynecologic cancer surgery while they receive chemotherapy. It aims to see if this eating pattern is safe and helpful during treatment.
This study compares two approaches for women with obesity and early-stage endometrial cancer: having surgery right away versus going through a special weight-loss and health-optimization program before surgery. The goal is to see if preparing the body before surgery improves outcomes.
This trial studies whether a weight management program can help improve the effectiveness of fertility-sparing treatment for endometrial cancer. It may help patients with overweight or obesity by supporting their treatment and overall health.
This trial tests a lifestyle program to help people who have had endometrial cancer lose weight and improve their health. It uses a Fitbit app, group video sessions, and other tools to support healthy changes.
This trial tests whether short-term fasting before chemotherapy is better than eating freely for women with advanced ovarian cancer. It aims to see if fasting can help treatment work better or reduce side effects.
