This study investigates the effects of an investigational medication combined with chemotherapy for women with advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer. Endometrial cancer affects the lining of the uterus, and this study aims to understand how the investigational medication, when used with standard chemotherapy drugs, impacts the condition.
Participants in the study will receive the investigational medication along with chemotherapy treatments. Chemotherapy involves using drugs to kill cancer cells, and in this study, it is given in combination with the investigational medication to see if it improves outcomes for patients with this type of cancer.
- Who can participate: Women with advanced or recurrent cancer of the uterus lining who have undergone surgery and have measurable disease may participate. Participants must be of non-childbearing potential and have an ECOG Performance Status of 0 or 1.
- Study details: Participants will receive an investigational medication along with chemotherapy to evaluate the treatment's effectiveness.
