Abstract
Progestin-based therapy can safely be offered to a subset of patients with atypical endometrial hyperplasia or Grade 1 endometrioid endometrial cancer who desire fertility preservation. A recent study shows that levonorgestrel intrauterine device confers durable clinical benefit and identifies possible immune mechanisms of relapse and resistance.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Cancer Research is a journal focusing on groundbreaking research in cancer, specifically in the areas where the laboratory and the clinic intersect. Our primary interest lies in clinical trials that investigate novel treatments, accompanied by research on pharmacology, molecular alterations, and biomarkers that can predict response or resistance to these treatments. Furthermore, we prioritize laboratory and animal studies that explore new drugs and targeted agents with the potential to advance to clinical trials. We also encourage research on targetable mechanisms of cancer development, progression, and metastasis.
