Conditions: Endometrial Cancer

Summary: this study aims to explore the safety and efficacy of oral topotecan combined with toripalimab in treating advanced/recurrent endometrial cancer through a single-center, prospective, single-arm, phase ii clinical trial. the goal is to explore the first-line treatment options for endometrial cancer patients in the era of immunotherapy, to improve the overall treatment level and prognosis of endometrial cancer.

1. overall design this trial is a single-center, prospective, single-arm, phase ii clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of oral topotecan combined with toripalimab in treating advanced/recurrent endometrial cancer. 2. experimental observation indicators 1) main indicators: progression-free survival (pfs), 2) other indicators: overall survival (os), objective response rate (orr), adverse reactions, changes in immune-related factors and biomarkers 3. sample size calculation this clinical trial aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of oral topotecan combined with toripalimab in treating advanced/recurrent endometrial cancer patients. based on literature reports, the median pfs of patients with advanced/recurrent endometrial cancer is 3.8 months. in comparison, the experimental group is expected to have a median pfs of 7 months, with an alpha value of 0.05. follow-up for 1 year is conducted, considering a 10% dropout rate. this study plans to include 30 patients with advanced/recurrent endometrial cancer. mid-term analysis: expected orr not less than 15%, with a minimum of 19 enrolled cases for mid-term analysis (at least 3 cases of cr or pr) 4. methods topotecan, 1.4mg/㎡, orally administered, d1-5+toripalimab 240mg, intravenous drip, d1, q3w, until disease progression or toxicity intolerance. 5. data processing enter data and use spss statistical software for statistical analysis. statistical analyst: clinical statistics department of fudan university cancer hospital. mailing address: 270 dong'an road, shanghai.
