Neoadjuvant Celecoxib in Newly Diagnosed Patients With Endometrial Carcinoma (CELEBRIDO)
Indoleamine 2,3 dioxygenase 1 (IDO 1) is the major enzyme catabolising the Tryptophan outside the liver. It has been shown that its plays a important role in generating a immunosuppressive micro-environment in tumors. IDO expression has been shown by Hennequart et al. to be driven by Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression. The investigator's team also shown that anti-COX2, celecoxib, can in a xenograft models of ovarian cancer decrease IDO1 expression and result in an infiltration of the tumor by T cells. The investigator proposed then to conduct a proof of concept study to evaluate the effect of pre-operative short administration of Celecoxib on IDO expression and Immune cells tumors infiltration, in patients with endometrial cancer. Indeed, this tumor type is well known to express frequently a high level of IDO.
