Podcasts about endometrial cancer

A gynaecological cancer diagnosis shouldn't take away the right to plan your future. This episode delves into surgical options and fertility considerations, highlighting minimally invasive versus open surgery, fertility-sparing treatments, hormonal therapy pathways, and the emotional and reproductive impacts of surgical decisions.Through lived experience from Mina and expert guidance from Professor Alison Brand AM, we explore how surgical innovations can support both health and future family planning. Ask questions, explore your options, and take an active role in your care.

In our exclusive interview, Dr Chase discussed the management of recurrent endometrial cancer, emphasizing the importance of biomarker profiles and previous therapies. For first recurrences, she explained that carboplatin and paclitaxel with pembrolizumab (Keytruda) or dostarlimab-gxly (Jemperli) is recommended for patients with mismatch repair–deficient (dMMR) disease, whereas those with MMR-proficient (pMMR) disease may benefit from carboplatin, paclitaxel, and pembrolizumab (Keytruda) or lenvatinib (Lenvima). She also highlighted findings from the phase 3 RUBY trial (NCT03981796) that supported the FDA approval of dostarlimab, showing significant improvements in progression-free and overall survival in both dMMR and pMMR patients. Chase also noted the rising incidence of endometrial cancer, its deadly nature, and the importance of clinical trials for advancing treatment options. 

Guest: Ann Klopp, M.D., Ph.D. The recent NRG0238 trial evaluated whether adding chemotherapy to radiation improves outcomes in patients with localized endometrial cancer recurrences. Hear from Dr. Ann Klopp as she explains the findings and how they could shift practice patterns for patient care. Dr. Klopp is a Professor of Radiation Oncology, the Director of Brachytherapy, and the leader of the gynecologic section in the Department of Radiation Oncology at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston.

Guest: Ann Klopp, M.D., Ph.D. Endometrial cancer treatment is continuing to evolve, with surgery guiding initial decisions and new evidence showing that adding immunotherapy significantly improves outcomes in advanced disease. But key questions remain around tailoring regimens to individual patients. Dr. Ann Klopp highlights the latest advances and challenges in management, particularly in patients with pelvic recurrences.

As a fitness and health professional, Dale considered herself to be in excellent health, so when she received an endometrial cancer diagnosis, it was totally unexpected. Her initial reaction was fear and so she followed the recommended conventional treatment, including surgery and chemo. Dale felt in her heart that this was not the way, and the success rate for survival was low, that when treatment was over she followed her instincts and went to Hope 4 Cancer. Dale discovered Radical Remission and that fueled her to continue her healing journey trusting her instincts and using natural methods that others had used successfully. Dale researched like her life depended on it, because it did. Learning about different therapies she could do and understanding cancer as a metabolic disease has helped her get into remission and she plans on staying there!

In this week's episode Dr Louise is joined by one of her patients, Lesley Henry, a nurse who lives in Northern Ireland. Lesley shares her experience of menopause, which started before she received a diagnosis of endometrial cancer. Her treatment for cancer led to a surgical menopause, which she found debilitating. Lesley explains she feared her brain fog and fatigue would prevent her from returning to work and from caring for her mother. A firm believer in the importance of quality of life, Lesley decided to resume taking HRT. She hopes to help other women who are going through similar experiences and shares the things that have given her the strength to make decision about her treatment and her life: I have a faith. Not everybody will have the same faith as I have, and that's fine, but I think having a faith helps. Be proactive and find support groups. Through Action Cancer I learnt about scar therapy, which has helped, plus I completed a positive living programme to learn how to re-energise and rebuild my life. Be prepared to say goodbye to the old you. She's not coming back and in a way, she needs to go. Trust in yourself and listen to your heart. You are worthwhile and your life matters.

In this episode of the IJGC podcast, Editor-in-Chief Dr. Pedro Ramirez is joined by Drs. Mansoor Mirza and Angélica Nogueira Rodrigues to discuss recent updates on endometrial cancer in Latin America. Dr. Mirza is a highly qualified medical oncologist with expertise in Medical and Radiation Oncology, holding multiple degrees and licenses in these fields. He currently serves as the Chief Oncologist at the Department of Oncology, Rigshospitalet, Copenhagen University Hospital, Denmark, and holds the position of Medical Director of the Nordic Society of Gynaecologic Oncology-Clinical Trial Unit (NSGO-CTU).

Dr. Angélica Nogueira-Rodrigues is the Founder of EVA Group, and President-elect of the Brazilian Society of Medical Oncology. She is also a Researcher and Professor at Federal University, MG, Brazil, and Chair of Gynecology at the Latin America Cooperative Oncology Group (LACOG).   Highlights:   -Detailed epidemiological data on endometrial cancer in Latin America are scant, but GLOBOCAN provides estimates for the incidence of uterine cancer within countries globally. EC is the second gyn cancer in the region, due to the burden of CC which is still the first one. It is estimated that the total number of new cases of uterine cancer in Latin America and the Caribbean will rise from approximately 33,000 in 2020 to an estimated 51,000 in 2040; -The last ten years have been marked by a radical transformation in the understanding of the molecular biology of endometrial cancer, and, including it.  or not  in FIGO staging, this discussion needs to evolve and be incorporated into clinical practice  in Latin America, as it impacts clinical decision, hereditary cancer diagnosis, among others. -The main message for young gynecological oncologists as us to create a future medicine with fewer disparities worldwide is to strive  to get access an implement the best for the patient,  avoiding protocols adapted for low-income countries which can negatively impact the clinical outcomes.

In this episode of the IJGC podcast, Editor-in-Chief Dr. Pedro Ramirez is joined by Dr. Ann H. Klopp to discuss radiation alone vs chemoradiation in endometrial cancer recurrence. Dr. Ann H. Klopp is a Professor of Radiation Oncology at MD Anderson Cancer Center, the head of the Gynecologic Oncology Section and a physician-scientist specializing in the treatment of gynecologic cancers. Her research focuses on improving outcomes for women with gynecologic cancers by enhancing tumor directed immune response in combination with radiation therapy and using advanced techniques to increase precision of radiation treatment delivery. Highlights: NRG0238 compared chemoradiation to radiation alone for patients with locally recurrent endometrial cancer and found that the addition of chemotherapy did not improve progression-free survival. Radiation therapy is highly effective for treatment for local recurrences of endometrial cancer. The nuances of patients enrolled and treatment delivered are discussed.
