First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This phase II trial tests whether combining elacestrant, a drug that lowers estrogen, with everolimus, which stops cancer cells from growing and cuts their blood supply, can control advanced or recurrent ER+ endometrial cancer. About 50 adults whose cancer has returned or spread will take both pills. The study measures how long the cancer stays under control and whether the combination shrinks tumors.
