Overview
The purpose of the project is to set up a national, prospective, longitudinal, multicenter cohort study, a tumor registry platform, to document uniform data on characteristics, molecular diagnostics, treatment and course of disease, to collect patient-reported outcomes and to establish a decentralized biobank for patients with advanced or metastatic ovarian cancer (OC) or advanced or metastatic endometrial cancer (EC) in Germany.
Description
SMARAGD is a national, prospective, open-label, longitudinal, non-interventional multicenter cohort study (tumour registry platform) to describe treatment in routine clinical practice of ovarian, fallopian tube, primary peritoneal and endometrial patients in routine care in Germany.
The registry will follow patients for up to three years with the aim to identify common therapeutic sequences and changes in the treatment of the disease. At inclusion, data in patient characteristics, comorbidities, tumor characteristics and previous treatments are collected. During the course of observation data on all systemic treatments, radiotherapies, surgeries, and outcome are documented.
Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) will be evaluated for up to three years.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria:

- Locally advanced and inoperable or metastatic EC (FIGO stage III-IV) who are starting
systemic first-line therapy.
- Signed and dated informed consent (IC):
- Patients participating in PRO module: IC before first therapy cycle
- Patients not participating in PRO module: IC no later than six weeks after start of first therapy cycle
Exclusion Criteria:
- newly diagnosed early-stage OC (FIGO stage I-IIa)
- Low grade mOC OR
- Early-stage EC (FIGO stage I-II)
