Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
STATEC is testing the use of a surgical procedure called lymphadenectomy (or lymph gland removal) to help guide further treatment in women with endometrial (womb) cancer. In patients who undergo lymph gland removal, the results of the lymph gland removal (e.g. node negative or node positive) will be used to select further (adjuvant) treatment.
Patients will be randomised to one of the following two arms, either prior to surgery or following hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (BSO):
Group 1: Randomised treatment will be hysterectomy and BSO, plus lymphadenectomy. Patients randomised prior to hysterectomy and BSO will receive the lymphadenectomy as part of the same operation as the hysterectomy and BSO. Patients randomised after hysterectomy and BSO will receive the lymphadenectomy as a separate operation. Adjuvant treatment will then be determined by lymph node status. Node positive patients will receive adjuvant treatment to include chemotherapy with or without external radiotherapy, while node negative patients will receive brachytherapy (internal radiotherapy) only.
Group 2: Randomised treatment will be a hysterectomy and BSO without lymphadenectomy. Patients randomised after hysterectomy and BSO will receive no further surgery. Patients will then receive adjuvant treatment to include chemotherapy with or without external radiotherapy.
The chemotherapy, external radiotherapy and/or brachytherapy for patients in both Group 1 and Group 2 will be given as per standard practice at the treating hospital.
Intervention code [1] 297997 0
Treatment: Surgery
Comparator / control treatment
The comparator treatment is surgery (hysterectomy and BSO) with NO lymph glands removed. After the surgery, all of the women in this group will receive chemotherapy with or without radiation therapy as per standard practice at the treating institution.

Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
Allocation is not concealed.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
Randomisation will occur centrally by computer. Patients will be randomised in a 1:1 ratio according to the following stratification factors:
a. participating site
b. histology:
c. lymphovascular space invasion
d. timing of hysterectomy and BSO
Masking / blinding

Statistical methods / analysis
The study plans to enrol 2000 participants internationally (including 240 in Australia/New Zealand).
The overall non-inferiority margin of 5 percentage points was agreed by the investigators to be clinically acceptable to patients and surgeons.
Using the exponential parameter of 0.0040, allowable hazard ratio of 1.272, and assuming 48 months accrual then a further 48 months study follow up (i.e. a maximum length of follow up of 96 months), requires 2000 patients to be recruited (500 deaths), with 85% power, and 5% two-sided statistical significance. With 80% power, the sample size is 1720 patients (430 deaths), and this would be the minimum target.
