简要总结
This single-arm study will evaluate the feasibility, safety, and preliminary efficacy of tirzepatide in combination with standard levonorgestrel intrauterine device (LNG-IUD) therapy in patients with endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia (EIN) or grade 1 endometrioid endometrial carcinoma with co-existing obesity and metabolic risk factors. Participants will receive tirzepatide once weekly while continuing standard clinical management with an LNG-IUD. Treatment decisions will remain at the discretion of the treating physician. The primary objective is to evaluate pathologic response at approximately 6 months. Secondary objectives include changes in metabolic parameters, assessing the incidence and severity of adverse events of tirzepatide and LNG-IUD therapy, quality of life assessment, change in weight, and change in BMI.
详细描述
Endometrial cancer is one of the most common gynecologic malignancies in the United States, with an increasing incidence rate. Obesity has been identified as a major risk factor for endometrial carcinogenesis and is prevalent among patients with endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia (EIN) and early-stage endometrial cancer. Tirzepatide, a dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide/glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GIP/GLP-1 RA), can cause meaningful weight loss and improvement in metabolic parameters. Levonorgestrel intrauterine device (LNG-IUD) therapy is a standard hormonal treatment for local EIN and grade 1 endometrioid endometrial carcinoma. This single-arm, single-center investigator-initiated study will evaluate the feasibility, safety, and preliminary efficacy of combining tirzepatide with standard LNG-IUD treatment in patients with EIN or grade 1 endometrioid endometrial carcinoma with co-existing obesity and metabolic risk factors. Eligible participants will be enrolled after initial histological confirmation of either EIN or grade 1 endometrioid endometrial carcinoma. Clinical management will remain at the discretion of the treating physician.

研究组 & 干预措施
LNG-IUD and Tirzepatide Management
Participants will receive tirzepatide in combination with standard clinical management with an LNG-IUD. Tirzepatide will be initiated at 2.5 mg subcutaneously once weekly. Dose escalation will occur according to the study protocol based on participant tolerability and treating physician discretion. Tirzepatide will be administered for approximately 6 months.
干预措施: Tirzepatide (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Pathologic Response at 6 months from Cycle 1 Day 1
时间窗: At the end Cycle 6 Day 28 (Approximately 6 months from Cycle 1 Day 1with each cycle approximately 28 days)
Pathologic response will be assessed at Cycle 6 Day 28, approximately 6 months after Cycle 1 Day 1, using available clinical pathology specimens, as clinically indicated. For participants undergoing definitive surgical management, pathologic response may be assessed using the hysterectomy specimen. For participants not undergoing hysterectomy, pathologic response may be assessed using an endometrial biopsy or dilation and curettage (D\&C). Pathologic response will be categorized as complete response, partial response, stable disease, or progressive disease.
次要结局
- Change in metabolic parameters(At Baseline, Cycle 4 Day 1, and Cycle 6 Day 28 (each cycle is approximately 28 days))
- Assessing the Incidence and Severity of Adverse Events of Tirzepatide and LNG-IUD therapy(Through study completion, an average of 9 months)
- Quality of Life Assessment Utilizing Study 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) Quality of Life Score(Cycle 1 Day 1, Cycle 4 Day 1, Cycle 6 Day 28, and 3 months from Cycle 6 Day 28)
- Change in Weight(For a total of 6 months from Baseline to Cycle 6 Day 28. Weight will be collected at Baseline, Cycle 4 Day 1, Cycle 6 Day 28, and 3 months from Cycle 6 Day 28 (each cycle is approximately 28 days))
- Change in BMI(For a total of 6 months from Baseline to Cycle 6 Day 28. Weight will be collected at Baseline, Cycle 4 Day 1, Cycle 6 Day 28, and 3 months from Cycle 6 Day 28 (each cycle is approximately 28 days))
