What this phase means
Phase 3: this treatment already looked useful in smaller studies. Now it is tested in a large group, often against standard care or a dummy treatment, to see if it should be approved.
Phase labels are FDA/ICH categories applied to the registry Phase field. They are not a finding that this study succeeded.
What the registry says happens
If you join, the listed intervention(s) are Biospecimen Collection, Diagnostic Imaging Testing, or Excisional Biopsy. The registry lists allocation as randomized. This phase III trial compares the effect of sentinel lymph node mapping to standard lymph node dissection in reducing the risk of swelling in the legs (lymphedema) in patients undergoing a hysterectomy for stage I endometrial cancer.
They plan to enroll about 428 people at 60 sites. Taking part typically means taking a study drug (or dummy pill), a procedure as part of the study plus check-ins.
