Collecting endometrial cancer samples to test PARP inhibitors

Collection of Endometrial Cancer-derived Organoids to Evaluate the Efficacy of PARP Inhibitors: PENDOR Pilot Study

Observational Centre Francois Baclesse · NCT06603506

This study is trying to see how well PARP inhibitors might work for people with localized endometrial cancer by collecting their tumor and blood samples to create models for testing.

What this trial studies

This observational study involves three stages: first, the collection of tumor and blood samples from patients with localized endometrial cancer. Next, organoid models will be created from these tumor samples. Finally, functional tests will be developed to predict how well patients may respond to PARP inhibitor treatments based on their organoid responses.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 and older with localized endometrial cancer who are candidates for surgical treatment.

Not a fit: Patients with other active cancers or those unable to provide informed consent may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to more personalized and effective treatment options for patients with endometrial cancer.

How similar studies have performed: While this approach is innovative, similar studies using organoids for cancer treatment prediction have shown promise, suggesting potential for success.
