Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates for this study are females aged 45 and older who are experiencing abnormal uterine bleeding or postmenopausal bleeding.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who have had a hysterectomy or a known history of endometrial cancer or uterine sarcoma will not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This observational study aims to develop a non-invasive diagnostic test to help rule out gynecological cancers in women aged 45 and older who experience abnormal uterine bleeding or postmenopausal bleeding. Participants will be required to provide informed consent and comply with scheduled visits throughout the study. The focus is on identifying potential uterine cancer in this demographic, which is at a higher risk for such conditions.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide a safer and more accessible method for early detection of uterine cancer in women.
How similar studies have gone: While this approach is innovative, similar studies have shown promise in developing non-invasive diagnostic methods for gynecological cancers.
