Article Abstract

The Korean Society of Gynecologic Oncology (KSGO) had been making an effort to standardize and enhance the quality of domestic uterine corpus cancer treatment by developing updated clinical practice guidelines in 2021. The KSGO revised the guidelines based on a literature search using 4 key elements: Population, Intervention, Comparison, and Outcome framework. These elements include the evaluation of the efficacy and safety of immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment in recurrent/advanced endometrial cancer patients who have failed platinum-based chemotherapy, as well as the effect of combined treatment with trastuzumab in patients with HER2/neu-positive endometrial cancer. Additionally, the guideline assessed the efficacy and safety of omitting lymph node dissection in low-risk endometrial cancer patients, investigated the effect of sentinel lymph node mapping in early-stage endometrial cancer surgery, addressed the outcome of chemoradiation therapy as a postoperative treatment in patients with advanced (stage III-IVA) endometrial cancer, and explored the impact of initial treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors on survival in patients with advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer patients.

Background: Endometrial carcinoma (EC) represents a significant clinical challenge due to its pronounced molecular heterogeneity, directly influencing prognosis and therapeutic responses. Accurate classification of molecular subtypes (CNV-high, CNV-low, MSI-H, POLE) and precise tumor mutational burden (TMB) assessment is crucial for guiding personalized therapeutic interventions. Integrating proteomics data with advanced machine learning (ML) techniques offers a promising strategy for achieving precise, clinically actionable classification and biomarker discovery in EC.

B cells play a critical role in tumor immunity, with their presence associated with improved prognosis in various cancers, including endometrial cancer (EC). However, the nature of the B cell response within the tumor microenvironment (TME) remains incompletely understood. In this study, we conducted single-cell analyses of B cells and CD4+ T cells in the TME of EC.

Ovarian and endometrial cancers frequently harbor a mutation in the tumor suppressor gene TP53, which occurs in over 90 % of ovarian cancers and in the most aggressive endometrial cancers. The normal tumor suppressive functions of p53 are disrupted, resulting in unregulated cell growth and therapeutic resistance to standard treatments including chemotherapy and PARP inhibitors. Hence, a novel therapeutic strategy is urgently needed for p53 mutant gynecologic cancers, and we propose that converting mutant p53 to a wild type conformation and restoring its tumor suppressive functions has the potential to greatly improve treatment.
