Who cannot join

  • Participants must not have received any previous systemic or local treatment for the new primary endometrial cancer currently under investigation. This includes surgery, radiotherapy, cytotoxic treatments, and endocrine therapies.

Show all 24Show fewer
  • Ivabradine or other drugs with a similar mechanism of action in sinoatrial cells.
  • Participants must not have any evidence of severe or uncontrolled systemic diseases that, in the investigator's opinion, would make participation in the study undesirable.
  • Participants must not meet any of the following cardiovascular criteria:
  • Electrolyte Abnormalities: Untreated serum or plasma potassium, magnesium, or calcium levels outside the normal limit range that could prolong the QT interval. These are: clinically significant electrolyte abnormalities with potential QT-prolonging effect including hypokalaemia, hyperkalaemia, hypo- and hyper-magnesaemia, hypo- and hyper-calcaemia.

  • Participants must not have experienced any cardiovascular procedure or event within the last 6 months such as: Coronary artery bypass graft, angioplasty, vascular stent placement, other structural heart disease interventions (e.g., cardiac valve repair or replacement surgery or transcatheter valve treatment), severe aortic regurgitation (Grades 3 and 4), myocardial infarction, unstable angina pectoris, cerebrovascular accident, or transient ischemic attack.
  • Participants must not have refractory nausea and vomiting, uncontrolled chronic gastrointestinal diseases, an inability to swallow the formulated product, or a history of significant bowel resection that would preclude adequate absorption of camizestrant.
  • Participants must not have a history of hypersensitivity to any active or inactive excipients of camizestran
  • Participants must not be enrolled if, in the investigator's judgment, they are unlikely to comply with study procedures, restrictions, and requirements.
  • Pregnant patients or breastfeeding

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Camizestrant in people with Estrogen Receptor-positive and Early Stage Endometrial Cancer, run by University Health Network, Toronto at 6 sites in Canada.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 18 inclusion and 24 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Sep 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in Canada. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Stephanie Lheureux, MD, PhD (416-946-2818, stephane.lheureux@uhn.ca), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Absolute change in in ER expression by H-score (time frame: 2 years). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Sep 2026.
