Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The goal of this research study is to learn if metformin can affect endometrial cancer cells in women who do not have diabetes. Objectives: Primary Objectives: 1\. To determine the molecular effects of metformin and associated physiologic changes in insulin/glucose metabolism on the mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) signaling pathway in the endometrium of women with endometrial cancer Secondary Objectives: 1. To describe the effects of metformin on the histology and proliferation of the endometrium in women with endometrial cancer. 2. To assess the effect of body mass index on the response to treatment with metformin 3. To assess the effect of insulin resistance on the response to treatment with metformin 4. To determine effects of metformin on the serum, urine and DNA biomarkers of women with endometrial cancer.
