Summary

This trial is studying how well different treatment regimens work in treating patients with serous or p53 abnormal endometrial cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for women with serous or p53 abnormal endometrial cancer who've had optimal surgery, have a performance status ≤2, and available tissue samples. They must understand the consent form, not have received prior treatment for this cancer, and agree to contraception. Exclusions include previous chemotherapy for endometrial cancer, certain mixed tumors, recent radiotherapy affecting bone marrow, uncontrolled illnesses that affect study compliance, known brain metastases unless stable post-treatment over 1 month, pregnancy, active HIV or Hepatitis B/C on therapy.
What is being tested?
The trial tests if external beam radiation (EBRT) improves disease-free survival compared to vaginal brachytherapy after chemotherapy in early-stage patients. For advanced stages, it examines whether maintenance with Niraparib increases progression-free survival. It's an umbrella two-arm phase II trial where participants are randomly assigned to treatments.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include local reactions from radiation like skin irritation or discomfort during brachytherapy application; fatigue; digestive issues; blood disorders from Niraparib such as low platelet counts or anemia; and increased risk of infections due to immune system suppression.

All Individual Drugs Already Approved
Therapies where all constituent drugs have already been approved are likely to have better-understood side effect profiles.

Trial Design

4Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Early Stage Cohort - Arm B1Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
Vaginal high-dose rate brachytherapy 21 Gy in 3 fractions, prescribed to 5mm (i.e. 100% isodose at 5mm) from the cylinder/applicator surface and top along the upper third to half of the vagina (minimum 3cm, maximum 4cm).
Group II: Early Stage Cohort - Arm AExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Pelvic EBRT at 45Gy in 25 fractions, in 1.8Gy fractions daily, 5 days per week
Group III: Advanced Stage Cohort Arm D1Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Investigational agent (niraparib), orally, at a dose of 200 mg, or 300 mg, once daily, based on baseline platelet count and weight.
Group IV: Advanced Stage Cohort Arm CActive Control1 Intervention
