New collagen shot may help young women beat uterine cancer without hysterectomy
NCT ID NCT07377734
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether injecting a lab-made collagen into the uterus, along with daily hormone pills, can help shrink early-stage endometrial cancer or precancerous growths. The goal is to preserve fertility in women aged 45 or younger. Thirty participants will either receive the collagen injections plus hormones or hormones alone, and their response will be checked every 3 months.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Pathological diagnosis of endometrioid adenocarcinoma (G1 or G2) or atypical endometrial hyperplasia. 2. For patients with endometrial cancer, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or ultrasound must confirm that the lesion is confined to the endometrium or invades less than 1/2 of the myometrium (i.e., FIGO 2009 Stage IA). 3. Age ≤ 45 years. 4. Desire to preserve fertility and signed informed consent. 5. No serious medical comorbidities (e.g., severe liver or renal dysfunction). 6. No contraindications to progestin therapy or pregnancy. 7. No evidence of distant metastasis on imaging. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Tumor invasion \> 1/2 of the myometrium, or FIGO (2009) Stage IB and above. 2. Tumor differentiation grade G3 or non-endometrioid adenocarcinoma. 3. Coexistence of other malignant tumors. 4. Contraindications to conservative treatment or use of the study drugs. 5. Known allergy to recombinant protein components. 6.
