ENDO-3 Trial Summary

This trial aims to determine the value of using sentinel node biopsy (SNB) compared to traditional lymph node dissection in patients with endometrial cancer. The study will involve 444 patients in the

Who is the study for?
This trial is for women over 18 with early-stage endometrial cancer, confirmed by tissue analysis. They should be physically able to undergo laparoscopic or robotic surgery and have no signs of cancer outside the uterus. Women under 45 wishing to keep their ovaries can join if they have a specific low-grade tumor with limited invasion.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares traditional surgical removal of reproductive organs in endometrial cancer patients with and without sentinel node biopsy (SNB), which uses dye to identify key lymph nodes for removal. The aim is to see if SNB can replace more extensive surgery without compromising patient outcomes.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include risks associated with general anesthesia, bleeding, infection from surgery, and specifically lymphoedema (swelling caused by lymph fluid) as a result of the sentinel node biopsy procedure.

Total Laparoscopic/Robotic Hysterectomy, Bilateral Salpingo-Oophorectomy (TH BSO) with Sentinel Node Biopsy (SNB) using Indocyanine Green (ICG)+/- Methylene Blue Dye (+/- omentectomy in high risk cell types) Note: If participants (≤45 years of age), have Grade 1 endometrial adenocarcinoma (EAC) with myometrial invasion <50% (by MRI) and wish to retain their ovaries a BSO may be omitted.
Group II: TH BSO without retroperitoneal node dissectionActive Control1 Intervention
Total Laparoscopic/Robotic Hysterectomy, Bilateral Salpingo-Oophorectomy (TH BSO) without retroperitoneal node dissection (+/- omentectomy in high risk cell types) Note: If participants (≤45 years of age), have Grade 1 endometrial adenocarcinoma (EAC) with myometrial invasion <50% (by MRI) and wish to retain their ovaries a BSO may be omitted.
