Registered outcomes6

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryMean Post-treatment Tumor Progesterone Receptor H-score (Histology Score)Specimens were collected at hysterectomy on day 21-24 and analyzed in batch.
The H-score is defined as the percent cells staining positive (0-100) multiplied by the staining intensity (0, 1, 2 or 3) measured in the tumor by immunohistochemistry and averaged over 3 reviewers. This score can range from 0 to 300. In general, PRs are expected to decrease in response to medroxyprogesterone acetate. It was hypothesized that entinostat would mitigate the decrease in PR relative to the medroxyprogesterone acetate only arm post treatment. Higher PR H-scores post treatment in the arm with entinostat relative to the medroxyprogesterone alone arm would be consistent with this hypothesis. Arm II was thought to result in higher scores which was expected to have a more favorable outcome when treated with MPA therapy.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With a Histologic ResponseSpecimens were collected at initial diagnostic biopsy and at hysterectomy on day 21-24 and analyzed in batch.
Pre- and post-treatment slides for each patient were evaluated in pairs for complete or partial histologic response by one reviewer. Pre- and post-treatment slides for each patient were evaluated in pairs for complete or partial histologic response by one reviewer. A histologic response was defined as either the absence of identifiable adenocarcinoma in the hysterectomy specimen section (complete) or, subjectively, as the presence of a complex proliferation of glands that retain the architectural characteristics of adenocarcinoma, but with features of secretion, decreased nuclear stratification, or the presence of eosinophilic, squamous or mucinous metaplasia, when this was absent in the initial sample (partial).
SecondaryPercent of Participants With a Ki67 ResponseSpecimens were collected at initial diagnostic biopsy and at hysterectomy on day 21-24 and analyzed in batch.A response was defined as a decrease in Ki-67 protein expression in tumor from pre- to post-treatment.
SecondaryThe Frequency and Severity of CTCAE Version 4.0 Graded Adverse Events (AE)Up to 45 days after surgery
Maximum grade of physician assessed adverse events reported during treatment and up to 45 days after surgery. Grades start with 1 which is considered mild through grade 5 which is death. Participants on this study had adverse event grades up to grade 3 which is considered moderately severe.
OtherMean Post-treatment Tumor Estrogen Receptor ScoreUp to 3 years
OtherCo-expression of PR, Ki67, and p21Up to 3 yearsWill be compared between the arms.
