Background:
Endometrial carcinoma is classified as a gynecological cancer with high incidence. However, comparatively, only a small percentage of patients associated with it experience the condition progress to advanced disease or face recurring conditions. In the event where the condition progresses or recurs, the existing prognosis is poor and the most efficient form of treatment has not been established. Traditional methods to treat advanced endometrial carcinoma involves cytoreductive surgical intervention and radiation therapy, or chemotherapy, or a combination. Currently, there is controversy regarding the safest and most effective form of treatment. Therefore, the aim of conducting this protocol is to systematically review and provide meta-analyses on the curative effects of only using adjuvant chemotherapy to treat advanced endometrial carcinoma.
Methods:
A systematic search will be performed in 6 online-based databases, including WanFang, PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure databases. All related studies until December 22, 2021 will be considered in the search. Moreover, Google Scholar will be used as a source for grey literature. Two independent authors will screen the titles and abstracts. We will use the revised Cochrane risk of bias tool for performing an assessment of the risk of bias in randomized controlled trials. Additionally, Begg test statistics and Egger regression test will be employed to objectively detect the publication bias.
Ethics And Dissemination:
Not required.

However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...
