Bariatric Education for Women With Obesity and Endometrial Cancer (SCC-BAREDU)

May 12, 2025 updated by: University of Oklahoma

Bariatric Surgery Among Women With Obesity and Low Risk Endometrial Cancer: A Pilot Study

The purpose of this study is to examine whether a standardized video education tool will improve knowledge regarding obesity and bariatric surgery and increase bariatric surgery referrals for obese women with endometrial cancer.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Terminated

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

An estimated 50% of all endometrial cancer cases are associated with obesity. Bariatric surgery has been shown to reduce the risk of hormone-related cancers, including endometrial cancer, by up to 70-80%. This prospective, study of 80 patients will be randomized to either a standard education for weight loss provided by their oncologist or a standard education plus a 15-minute video with information regarding obesity, relationship of obesity and endometrial cancer, and the safety and benefits of bariatric surgery.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 80 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Sampling Method

Probability Sample

Study Population

Women with endometrial cancer with obesity who are receiving care at the Stephenson Cancer Center will be considered for inclusion. All patients regardless of race, ethnicity, or socioeconomic status will be included without discrimination.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Adults aged 18-80 with class II or greater obesity (BMI ≥ 35)
  • Have pathologically-confirmed endometrial cancer
  • Have completed initial therapy (e.g. surgery, hormonal therapy, vaginal cuff brachytherapy, or a combination of these modalities) and require no further interventions related to cancer care. Patients taking hormonal therapy as part of cancer treatment may be included.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Under the age of 18 or over the age of 80
  • Have previously undergone bariatric surgery
  • Requires ongoing cancer treatment with chemotherapy or whole pelvic radiation.
  • Poor surgical candidate secondary to comorbidities or performance status.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Control Group
If the patient is in group 1, she will get standard education for weight loss, which will be provided by her Gynecologic Oncologist. This will take about 15 minutes.
Behavioral: Standard weight loss education
Participants will be randomized and given the standard weight loss education by the Gynecologic Oncology provider.
Video Group
If the patient is in group 2, she will get standard education for weight loss provided by her Gynecologic Oncologist. Then she will be asked to view a 15-minute video to get information regarding obesity, the relationship of obesity and endometrial cancer, and the safety and benefits of bariatric surgery. These will take about 30 minutes.
Behavioral: Standard weight loss education + Educational Video
Participants will be randomized and given the standard weight loss education by the Gynecologic Oncology provider followed by a 15-minute educational video detailing the benefits of weight loss.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Proportion of patient's obesity relevant knowledge pre- and post-education intervention
Time Frame: 6 Months
Proportion of patient will complete a pre and post (6 months after enrollment) survey to examine the knowledge of obesity, endometrial cancer and bariatric surgery. These measures will be self-reported 6 months after the patient was educated on the benefits of weight loss.
6 Months
Proportion of patients who chose to take part in bariatric surgery.
Time Frame: 6 Months
Based on these pre-and post-educational surveys patient's decision to participate or to decline the bariatric surgery referral will be recorded, including the patients experience with bariatric surgery program.
6 Months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in online questionnaire responses pre- and post-intervention.
Time Frame: 6 Months
The subject's knowledge will be assessed using a survey at baseline compared to 6 months later. Unit of measure: % and/or number of respondents.
6 Months
Proportion of subjects who lost weight after being educated on the benefits of weight loss.
Time Frame: 6 Months
The measure will be self-reported 6 months after the subject was educated on the benefits of weight loss.
6 Months
Proportion of subjects who participated in the bariatric seminar.
Time Frame: 1 Year
