New therapeutic targets for endometrial cancer: a glimpse into the preclinical sphere

EC molecular analysis yields the potential of tailoring adjuvant treatment by escalating or deescalating therapy, as shown for POLE-mutated and p53-mutated tumors. Moreover, the expression of specific molecular signatures offers the possibility to employ novel target therapies, such as immune-checkpoint inhibitors that have demonstrated a significant benefit on prognosis. New treatment guidelines are still being established, and ongoing studies are exploring the potential prognostic role of further sub-stratifications of the four molecular classes and treatment options.
