Findings from clinical trials have led to advancement of care for patients with gynecologic malignancies. However, restrictive inclusion of patients into trials has been widely criticized for inadequate representation of the real-world population. Ideally, patients enrolled in clinical trials should represent a broader population to enhance externa...
BACKGROUND: Patients with advanced/recurrent endometrial cancer have a poor prognosis and limited treatment options. Biomarkers such as tumor protein 53 (TP53) in endometrial cancer can integrate novel strategies for improved and individualized treatment that could impact patient outcomes. In an exploratory analysis of the phase III ENGOT-EN5/GOG-3...

Endometrial carcinomas can be classified into four molecular subgroups - mismatch repair deficient (MMRd), p53 abnormal (p53abn), polymerase-ϵ (POLE) ultramutated, and 'no specific molecular profile' (NSMP). Retrospective data imply that the response to adjuvant therapies may depend on the molecular subgroup. These findings emphasize the need for a...

Wee1 kinase is a crucial regulator of the G2/M checkpoint which prevents entry of damaged DNA into mitosis. Adavosertib (AZD1775), a selective inhibitor of Wee1, induces G2 escape and increases cytotoxicity when combined with DNA damaging agents. We aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of adavosertib in combination with definitive pelvic radio...

Background Gynecologic cancer has a high frequency of anemia, which is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Blood transfusion is used to correct anemia, but carries its own side effects and problems in the blood supply have been emerging. As such, methods other than transfusion are needed to correct anemia in patients with cancer. Pri...
