Rina-S for Endometrial Cancer
(RAINFOL-03 Trial)
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
This trial tests a new treatment called Rina-S for individuals with endometrial cancer that has recurred or worsened after previous treatments. The researchers aim to determine if Rina-S is more effective than standard chemotherapy options like paclitaxel or doxorubicin. Participants have a 50% chance of receiving either Rina-S or one of the standard chemotherapies. The trial seeks individuals diagnosed with endometrial cancer who have undergone at least one but no more than three previous treatments and have experienced cancer progression after their last treatment. As a Phase 3 trial, this study represents the final step before potential FDA approval, offering participants a chance to contribute to a treatment that could soon become widely available.
Is there any evidence suggesting that this trial's treatments are likely to be safe?
Research has shown that Rina-S has a manageable safety profile for patients with advanced endometrial cancer. In previous studies, participants did not experience serious side effects such as eye or lung problems. The safety data aligns with earlier findings, indicating that Rina-S is generally well-tolerated. Although Rina-S remains under study, it has received a Breakthrough Therapy Designation from the FDA. This designation indicates promise in effectively treating serious conditions, which is a positive sign for its safety and effectiveness.12345
Why do researchers think this study treatment might be promising for endometrial cancer?
Researchers are excited about Rina-S for endometrial cancer because it offers a potentially new approach to treatment. Unlike traditional chemotherapy options like paclitaxel and doxorubicin, which attack cancer cells broadly, Rina-S may work by targeting specific pathways involved in cancer growth, potentially reducing side effects and improving effectiveness. This targeted action could mean a more personalized treatment option, which is why there's a buzz around its potential benefits.
What evidence suggests that Rina-S might be an effective treatment for endometrial cancer?
Research has shown that Rina-S, which participants in this trial may receive, offers promising results for treating advanced endometrial cancer. In past studies, 50% of patients experienced significant tumor reduction, with some achieving complete remission. Rina-S effectively targets and fights cancer cells and has succeeded in patients who have tried other treatments. The side effects are generally manageable and expected to be tolerable. These findings suggest Rina-S could be a strong option for those with recurring or worsening endometrial cancer.12346

Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
This trial is for individuals with recurrent or progressive endometrial cancer who have previously undergone platinum-based chemotherapy and PD(L)-1 inhibitor treatment. They must show radiographic progression after their most recent therapy. Those ineligible for further platinum-based treatments due to specific reasons may also participate.Inclusion Criteria
