Summary

This trial is testing a new immunotherapy drug combo against placebo to see if it's more effective in treating endometrial cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for women over 18 with advanced (Stage III or IV) or recurrent endometrial cancer. They should have an ECOG performance status of 0 or 1, indicating they are fully active or restricted in physically strenuous activity but ambulatory and able to carry out work of a light nature. Participants must not have used certain cancer treatments recently, have controlled blood pressure, adequate organ function, and no history of certain other diseases.
What is being tested?
The study tests the effectiveness and safety of dostarlimab combined with chemotherapy drugs carboplatin-paclitaxel followed by either dostarlimab alone or together with niraparib versus placebo versions. The goal is to see if these combinations help those with advanced stages of endometrial cancer.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include immune-related reactions due to dostarlimab (like inflammation in various organs), typical chemotherapy side effects from carboplatin-paclitaxel such as nausea, hair loss, fatigue, increased risk of infection, and possible complications from niraparib like bone marrow suppression.
