Novotech , the global full-service clinical Contract Research Organization (CRO) that partners with biotech companies to accelerate the development of advanced and novel therapeutics at every phase, has released a comprehensive research report - Endometrial cancer - Global Clinical Trial Landscape .

The report provides insights and key data on the global landscape of clinical trials for uterine cancer, primarily endometrial cancer (EC), focusing on prevalence, funding landscape, emerging trends, therapies, trial density, and patient recruitment for trial planning and research.

Since 2018, over 1,200 EC clinical trials have been initiated worldwide, with North America and Asia-Pacific contributing 39% and 33% of trials, respectively, followed by Europe at 22%.

EC ranks as the second most common, and fourth leading, cause of death globally among gynecology malignancies. In 2022 alone, there were nearly 420,370 new cases of EC globally, with approximately 97,720 deaths. 

Within Asia:

Currently, the standard of care for EC is surgery with either partial or total hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (TH/BSO). For recurrent EC patients, treatments vary based on extent and prior success, including surgery, radiation, and systemic therapy such as chemotherapy and hormonal therapy. 

The report notes that projections for EC show an increase in new cases over the next 25 years, potentially surpassing 600,000 annual new cases by 2044.

This demand for therapies has seen EC clinical trial activity increase globally from 2014 to 2023, with the Asia-Pacific region experiencing the highest increase with a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 22.9%. ROW followed closely at 14.9%, and the North American and European regions showed a steady growth rate at 9.7% and 5.2% respectively.

Similarly, the funding landscape is strong with the United States dominating in venture capital funding for EC research between 2019 and 2023, followed by China, with investments totalling $2129 million and $894 million, respectively. Public funding initiatives in Australia and the United States focused on expanding and improving the quality of care.
