The wire

  1. 01LCCC2415 (NCT07065552), sponsored by UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center, is recruiting for a pre-operative window study of tirzepatide in endometrial cancer, with a start date of April 27, 2026.
  2. 02Investigators hypothesize tirzepatide acts both indirectly, by improving the host metabolic milieu, and directly on the tumor microenvironment via insulin, lipid and mTOR signaling.
  3. 03This is an early Phase 1 tissue-based window design, not an efficacy trial; readouts will rest on paired biopsy and hysterectomy specimens rather than clinical outcomes.
