A Multi-Omics Approach Revealed Common Dysregulated Pathways in Type One and Type Two Endometrial Cancers.

Endometrial cancer (EC) is the most frequent gynecologic cancer in postmenopausal women. Pathogenetic mechanisms that are related to the onset and progression of the disease are largely still unknown. A multi-omics strategy can help identify altered pathways that could be targeted for improving therapeutical approaches. In this study we used a multi-omics approach on four EC cell lines for the identification of common dysregulated pathways in type 1 and 2 ECs. We analyzed proteomics and metabolomics of AN3CA, HEC1A, KLE and ISHIKAWA cell lines by mass spectrometry. The bioinformatic analysis identified 22 common pathways that are in common with both types of EC. In addition, we identified five proteins and 13 metabolites common to both types of EC. Western blotting analysis on 10 patients with type 1 and type 2 EC and 10 endometria samples confirmed the altered abundance of NPEPPS. Our multi-omics analysis identified dysregulated proteins and metabolites involved in EC tumor growth. Further studies are needed to understand the role of these molecules in EC. Our data can shed light on common pathways to better understand the mechanisms involved in the development and growth of EC, especially for the development of new therapies.

Features of the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment in endometrial cancer based on molecular subtype.

Endometrial cancer (EC) is one of the three most prevalent gynecological tumors affecting women and is the most prevalent gynecological malignancy in the developed world. Its incidence is rapidly increasing worldwide, mostly affecting postmenopausal women, whereas recently its prevalence has increased in younger people. EC is an immune gene disease and many studies have shown that the tumor-immunosuppressive microenvironment plays an important role in cancer progression. In recent years, findings regarding the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (ITME) of EC have included immune evasion mechanisms and immunotherapy, which are mostly immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) for EC. Recently studies on the ITME of different molecular types of EC have found that different molecular types may have different ITME. With the research on the immune microenvironment of EC, a new immunophenotype classification based on the immune microenvironment has been carried out in recent years. However, the impact of the ITME on EC remains unclear, and the immunophenotype of EC remains limited to the research stage. Our review describes recent findings regarding the ITME features of different EC molecular types. The advent of immunotherapy has brought hope for improved efficacy and prognosis in patients with advanced or recurrent EC. The efficacy and safety of ICIs combination therapy remains the focus of future research.

Association of mismatch repair deficiency in endometrial cancer with 18F-FDG PET/CT and clinicopathological features and their prognostic value.

Identification of the mismatch repair (MMR) deficiency in endometrial cancer (EC) may aid in the screening of patients who may benefit from immunotherapy. Our goal was to investigate the relationship between MMR status and 18F-FDG PET/CT metabolic parameters and clinicopathological features in patients with EC, as well as to explore their prognostic value. This retrospective study included 106 EC patients who were classified as MMR deficient (dMMR) or MMR proficient (pMMR) group based on MMR protein expression status evaluated by immunohistochemistry. Clinicopathological characteristics and PET metabolic parameters were compared between the dMMR and pMMR groups, and their relationships with MMR status and prognosis were evaluated. Of 106 EC patients, 30 patients (28.1%) had dMMR, while 76 (71.7%) had pMMR. Compared with the pMMR group, the dMMR group showed a lower prevalence of overweight (BMI ≥ 25) (17.2% vs. 43.9%, P = 0.019) and more lymph vascular space invasion (43.3% vs. 21.1%, P = 0.029). Although no relationship between glucometabolism parameters and MMR status was observed in all enrolled patients, higher SUVmax was observed in the endometrioid type of EC with MMR deficiency (P = 0.047). Additionally, SUVmax related to MMR status was found in EC patients with advanced FIGO stage (P = 0.026) or deep myometrial invasion (P = 0.026). Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that lymph node metastasis was independently predictive of PFS, while advanced FIGO stage was an independent predictor of OS. No significant association between MMR status and prognosis was found in EC. Higher SUVmax was associated with MMR deficiency in EC patients with endometrioid type, advanced stage, or deep myometrial invasion, which may be useful for predicting the MMR status and thus aiding in determination of immunotherapy for patients with EC.

Androgen receptor and its correlation with estrogen and progesterone receptors, aimed for identification of cases for future anti-androgen therapy in endometrial cancers.

The expression of androgen receptor (AR) is not commonly tested or studied in uterine cancers, unlike estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) which are positive in most endometrial carcinomas. In this series, we evaluated the expression of AR and its comparison to ER and PR in different types of endometrial cancers and have reviewed the literature. The status of AR, ER, and PR expression were evaluated in 71 cases which were categorized into endometrial endometrioid cancer (EEC), non-endometrioid endometrial cancers (NEEC), and metastatic carcinomas of endometrium. Expression of the receptors were compared to each other as well as to mismatch repair proteins (MMR), p53, and body mass index (BMI) using Fisher's Exact test in the StatPlus software. In EECs, the positivity was 97% for all the three receptors. In NEEC, positivity rates were 68%, 48%, and 35% for AR, ER, and PR respectively. In Metastatic carcinomas, AR and ER positivity was seen in 100% while PR was positive in 75% of the cases. In all cancers, the rates were 17% (11/66) for MMR loss, 57% (30/53) for p53 aberrant expression, and 76% (54/71) for the patients with BMI of ≥ 25 (kg/m2). AR is expressed in a high percentage of endometrial cancers. Its significance is more evident in high-grade NEEC where ER and PR may not be expressed. These findings warrant further evaluation of AR expression and candidacy of this pathway as a potential therapeutic target in endometrial cancers.

Comparison of frozen section accuracy with final pathology results in early clinical stage of endometrioid type endometrial cancer

Objectives: We aimed to compare the accuracy of the depth of myometrial invasion determined by intraoperative frozen section in the early clinical stage of endometrioid type endometrial cancer, with the result of the final postoperative paraffin section. Methods: The study was carried out with 102 patients who were diagnosed with type 1-2 endometrioid endometrial cancer in the gynecology clinic of the state hospital between January 2015 and 2019. Retrospective demographic data, clinical characteristics, and pathology results of the patients who underwent surgical staging were recorded. Results: The mean age of the patients was 59.3 ± 9.1 years and 82.3% of the patients were in the postmenopausal period. The mean age of patients with a depth of myometrial invasion<1/2 was lower than myometrial invasion>1/2, which was statistically significant (p < 0.001). According to the final postoperative pathology results, 93.1% (n = 95) of the cases were diagnosed as FIGO stage 1. The subgroups were 66.7% stage 1a and 26.4% stage 1b. When the stage and grade distribution was made according to the final postoperative pathology result, stage 1a grade 2 endometrial cancer was the most common with a rate of 43.1%. Concordance of the intraoperative and postoperative pathology results for the depth of myometrial invasion was 84.3%, the specificity was 100%, the positive predictive value was 100%, and the negative predictive value was 86.76%. Conclusions: The accuracy of the intraoperative frozen section in endometrial cancers is quite higher. For this reason, intraoperative pathological examination results are important in terms of minimizing the complications of unnecessary surgery.

Lipid profile, ox-LDL, and LCAT activity in patients with endometrial carcinoma and type 2 diabetes: The effect of concurrent disease based on a case-control study.

The role of lecithin: cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) and oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) in endometrial cancer (EC) or EC with concurrent type 2 diabetes is still unclear. This study investigated the LCAT activity, ox-LDL, and lipid profile in EC patients with or without type 2 diabetes and compared them with healthy individuals and patients with type 2 diabetes alone. In this cross-sectional, case-control study, 93 female participants were recruited. The participants were divided into four groups, including EC with type 2 diabetes (n = 19), EC without type 2 diabetes (n = 17), type 2 diabetes (n = 31), and healthy controls (n = 26). Sociodemographic information, the LCAT activity, triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and ox-LDL levels were collected. One-way analysis of variance and analysis of covariance, Student's t-test, Mann-Whitney U-test, and χ 2-test were used to compare demographic features and laboratory results among studied groups. Regression analyses were also performed to evaluate the interaction effect between EC and type 2 diabetes on serum LCAT activity. The LCAT activity was significantly lower, and ox-LDL levels were significantly higher in all patient groups compared to the healthy controls (p < 0.001). EC patients had significantly lower LCAT activity and higher ox-LDL levels than type 2 diabetes and healthy groups (p < 0.05). Higher levels of TG and lower levels of HDL-C were observed in all patient groups compared to the healthy group (all p < 0.001). Patients with EC and concomitant type 2 diabetes had significantly lower serum LDL-C levels than healthy and type 2 diabetes groups (p < 0.05). The combination of EC and type 2 diabetes had a subadditive effect on LCAT activity and ox-LDL level. The lowest LCAT activity and the highest ox-LDL levels were observed in patients with EC and concurrent type 2 diabetes.

Comparative Study Between Superficial and Deep Myometrial Invasion in Endometrial Cancer Type 1 in Relation to Regional Lymph Nodes Metastasis

Comparative Study Between Superficial and Deep Myometrial Invasion in Endometrial Cancer Type 1 in Relation to Regional Lymph Nodes Metastasis

A Plain Language Summary of Results from the GARNET Study of Dostarlimab in Patients with Endometrial Cancer.

Dostarlimab, also known by the brand name JEMPERLI, is a medicine that can be used to treat certain types of endometrial cancer. GARNET is an ongoing phase 1 clinical study that is testing the safety and side effects of dostarlimab and the best way to administer it to patients. The results presented in this summary are from a time point in the middle of the study What were the results? The results from the GARNET study published in 2022 showed how well dostarlimab worked for people participating in the study. Dostarlimab was found to reduce the size of tumors in patients with certain types of endometrial cancer. The patients treated with dostarlimab had side effects that could be managed and few severe side effects. The results of the GARNET study led to dostarlimab being approved to treat patients with certain types of endometrial cancer. For patients with advanced-stage endometrial cancer, or endometrial cancer that has come back after chemotherapy (recurrent), there are few treatment options. The results suggest that dostarlimab may provide long-term benefits for these patients. Clinical Trial Registration: NCT02715284 (ClinicalTrials.gov).

Serum protein N-glycome patterns reveal alterations associated with endometrial cancer and its phenotypes of differentiation.

Aberrant N-glycosylation and its involvement in pathogenesis have been reported in endometrial cancer (EC). Nevertheless, the serum N-glycomic signature of EC remains unknown. Here, we investigated serum N-glycome patterns of EC to identify candidate biomarkers. This study enrolled 34 untreated EC patients and 34 matched healthy controls (HC) from Peking Union Medical College Hospital. State-of-the-art MS-based methods were employed for N-glycans profiling. Multivariate and univariate statistical analyses were used to identify discriminative N-glycans driving classification. Receiver operating characteristic analyses were performed to evaluate classification accuracy. EC patients displayed distinct differences in serum N-glycome and had abnormal high-mannose and hybrid-type N-glycans, fucosylation, galactosylation, and linkage-specific sialylation compared with HC. The glycan panel built with the four most discriminative and biologically important derived N-glycan traits could accurately identify EC (random forest model, the area under the curve [AUC]=0.993 [95%CI 0.955-1]). The performance was validated by two other models. Total hybrid-type N-glycans significantly associated with the differentiation types of EC could effectively stratify EC into well- or poorly-differentiated subgroups (AUC>0.8). This study provides the initial evidence supporting the utility of serum N-glycomic signature as potential markers for the diagnosis and phenotyping of EC.

Exploring the Diagnostic Potential of IHC and Next-Generation Sequencing Approaches for Endometrial Carcinoma Detection and Classification

Background: Globally, in 2018 endometrial cancer (EC) regarded as the sixth most commonly diagnosed cancer and the fourteenth leading cause of cancer with more deaths in females. Nowadays classical and modern classifications can be performing for diagnosing various types of cancers including endometrial cancer. Based on this our Objective of study is to determine the effectiveness of immunohistochemical observation, a quick and easy method for determining MSI and/or other types of EC which based on modern classification. As molecular study takes more cost we want to compare the both methods and showing the possibility of doing IHC instead of molecular study. Methods: This study designed to establish a small gene panel of Next Generation Sequencing NGS of endometrial cancer patients targeting 12 genes; MSH6, MLH3, MSH3, CDH1, PTEN, MSH2, MLH1, PMS2, FGFR2, BRCA1, MUTYH and AREL1. By using DNBSEQ-G400 Platform, Human Core Exome kit and Python software for analysis is used. At the same time, Dako kit used to performing IHC for six primary antibodies used to detect each of MSH6, MSH2, MLH, PMS2, PTEN and CDH1. The primary antibodies were applied on 5 µm formalin- fixed paraffin- embedded (FFPE). Results; histopathological examinations showed that all patients were at stage II endometrioid endometrial carcinoma. The FIGO classification were Ia and Ib. Microsatellite instability (MSI), nuclear staining immunoreaction for PTEN antibodies and membranous E- cadherin immunoreactions observed through IHC study. The molecular studies detected several polymorphisms which have clinical significant and some of them have conflict interpretations. Conclusions; we considered that, simply immunoreaction staining procedure can be use as alternative method for MSI phenotype detection rather than any type of more expensive and complex method of NGS. Concerning PTEN and ECAD1 antibodies reactions, also could be dependable in diagnosis and treatment and performing them if molecular diagnosis not available.

Heterogeneity of CD40 Expression in Different Types of High-Risk Endometrial Cancer Affects Discordant Prognostic Outcomes.

The role of immune checkpoint inhibitors in endometrial cancer is limited. At present, the anti-programmed cell death protein 1 (anti-PD-1) antibody is only used in patients with recurrence or metastasis. CD40 is an important immune checkpoint, which is expressed in tumor cells and immune cells, but its distribution characteristics in endometrial carcinoma have not been explored. Sixty-eight cases of primary endometrial carcinoma treated in Peking University People's Hospital from January 2010 to December 2020 were collected, including 28 cases of poorly differentiated endometrioid adenocarcinoma, 23 cases of serous carcinoma and 17 cases of clear cell carcinoma. The relationship of CD40 expression and PD-L1 expression with their prognosis was analyzed by immunohistochemistry. We found that CD40 had higher expression in non-endometrioid endometrial carcinoma, which lead to the worse prognosis. The effect of high expression of CD40 on the prognosis of endometrioid adenocarcinoma was not significantly different, and most patients with good prognosis. We found that the proportion of CD40 distribution in tumor cells and immune cells may be associated with this heterogeneity. The expression of CD40 in different endometrial cancers may indicate the difference prognosis, which may become a potential target for drug treatment of non-endometrioid endometrial carcinoma.

The predictive value of CA-125 for radiologic evidence of metastatic disease in type 2 endometrial cancers.

e17610 Background: Type 2 endometrial cancers encompass histologic variants that are more aggressive and have a higher incidence of extrauterine disease at the time of presentation than their type 1 counterparts. For high grade endometrial carcinomas, current National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines propose the "consideration of chest, abdomen and pelvis CT to evaluate for metastatic disease." We sought to investigate the predictive value of serum CA-125 for radiographic evidence of metastatic disease in patients with type 2 endometrial cancers. Methods: An IRB-approved, retrospective study investigating patients diagnosed with endometrial cancers between 2000-2020 at an urban, multi-site health system was conducted. Only patients with type 2 endometrial cancers and both pre-operative computed tomography scans of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis (CT CAP) and serum CA-125 results were included. A Youden’s index was used to calculate the optimal CA-125 cutoff. The sensitivity and specificity of CA-125 in predicting radiographic evidence of extrauterine disease was then calculated using this pre-determined CA-125 cutoff. Results: In total, 2,227 patients diagnosed with endometrial cancer (types 1 and 2) between 2000-2020 were identified. 1,932 cases were excluded due to low grade disease and/or the absence of pre-operative imaging and CA-125 results. Ultimately, 295 cases were included in analyses. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to generate Youden’s index which established the optimal CA-125 cutoff as 68 U/mL (P=0.0005). Using this cutoff, the specificity and sensitivity were determined to be 92.45% and 63.86%, respectively. The positive predictive value was 76.81% and the negative predictive value was 86.73%. Conclusions: According to current NCCN guidelines, pre-operative imaging and CA-125 should be considered if extrauterine disease is suspected in the setting of endometrial cancer. Although the role of serum CA-125 in monitoring clinical response is well documented, the utility of this test in stratifying patients who should undergo further radiologic evaluation is uncertain. Our results suggest that a CA-125 cutoff of &gt; 68 U/mL is predictive of radiographic evidence of metastatic disease and, thus, can be used to determine which patients should receive pre-operative CT CAP.

Use of Dietary Fibers in Reducing the Risk of Several Cancer Types: An Umbrella Review.

(1) Background: Numerous meta-analyses have shown that a high intake of dietary fiber plays a protective role in preventing the development of various types of cancer. However, previous studies have been limited by focusing on a single type of dietary fiber and variations in outcome measures, which may not be effectively applied to provide dietary guidance for the general population. (2) Object: We summarized the meta-analysis of dietary fiber and cancer, and provided references for residents to prevent cancer. (3) Methods: Systematic search of relevant meta-analyses on the association between dietary fiber and cancer occurrence in PubMed, Web of Science and other databases was conducted from the time of database construction to February 2023. The method logical and evidence quality assessments were performed by applying the criteria in the "A Measurement Tool to Assess Systematic Reviews-2" (AMSTAR2) scale and the World Cancer Research Fund/American Institute for Cancer Research (WCRF/AICR) Expert Report, respectively. (4) Results: Our analysis included 11 meta-analyses, and the AMSTAR 2 assessment revealed that the overall methodological quality was suboptimal, with two key items lacking sufficient information. Nonetheless, our findings indicate that a high intake of dietary fiber is associated with a reduced risk of several types of cancer, including esophageal, gastric, colon, rectal, colorectal adenoma, breast, endometrial, ovarian, renal cell, prostate, and pancreatic cancers. The majority of these associations were supported by a "probable" level of evidence. (5) Conclusions: Dietary fiber intake has different protective effects on different cancers.

Ion Channels and Personalized Medicine in Gynecological Cancers.

Targeted therapy against cancer plays a key role in delivering safer and more efficient treatments. In the last decades, ion channels have been studied for their participation in oncogenic processes because their aberrant expression and/or function have been associated with different types of malignancies, including ovarian, cervical, and endometrial cancer. The altered expression or function of several ion channels have been associated with tumor aggressiveness, increased proliferation, migration, invasion, and metastasis of cancer cells and with poor prognosis in gynecological cancer patients. Most ion channels are integral membrane proteins easily accessible by drugs. Interestingly, a plethora of ion channel blockers have demonstrated anticancer activity. Consequently, some ion channels have been proposed as oncogenes, cancer, and prognostic biomarkers, as well as therapeutic targets in gynecological cancers. Here, we review the association of ion channels with the properties of cancer cells in these tumors, which makes them very promising candidates to be exploited in personalized medicine. The detailed analysis of the expression pattern and function of ion channels could help to improve the clinical outcomes in gynecological cancer patients.

Frequencies, clinicopathological features, and risk factors of type I and type II endometrial cancer; a retrospective observational study at a tertiary care hospital in Pakistan

Background: Endometrial cancer (EC) is the most common gynecological malignancy worldwide. The death rates for EC have increased by more than 100% over the past 2 decades. EC is subdivided into two types based on distinct histological and clinical features: type I and type II. Our study aims to determine the risk factors and clinicopathological features of both type I and type II EC and draw a comparison between the two types based on frequency, risk factors and clinicopathological features. Methods: It was a retrospective observational study including patients of a single tertiary care center. The study included Patients diagnosed, treated, and followed up for type I and type II endometrial cancer at the study center over the past 19 years from 1st January 2000 to 31st December 2018. All the patients with metastatic endometrial cancer were excluded from the study. SPSS version 26 was used for statistical analysis. Results: A total of 376 patients were included in this study. Among these 343 (91.7) patients had endometroid adenocarcinoma (Type I) and 32 (8.3) had serous and clear cell tumor (type II). Type I EC had a mean age of 57.56 (SD±10.42) while patients with type II EC presented with a mean age of64.97 (SD±6.59). Hypertension and Diabetes were the most common comorbid in EC patients. HRT prior to EC was found to have an association with risk of EC. Compared to patients who were on HRT, patients who were not on HRT prior to diagnosis of EC had 80% less chance of developing endometrial cancer. (Confidence interval: 0.056-0.114, p=0.016). Conclusions: In summary our study demonstrates that both sub types of endometrial cancer have many risk factors that are similar to each other. Despite the difference between the population of both subgroups we were able to prove associations between risk factors and endometrial cancer. However further research is needed at provincial and national level with larger and relatively comparable sample sizes for both subgroups to recognize risk factors and numerically associate them to EC for Pakistani population.

Abstract CT044: KGOG2031 A phase II trial of repeated high dose luteal hormone therapy for intrauterine recurrence following fertility preserving therapy for atypical endometrial hyperplasia or endometrial cancer

Abstract Background: Atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH) and early endometrial cancer (EEC) are common disease in menopausal women, however, are gradually increasing in women aged under 40 years. The standard treatment for AEH/EC is hysterectomy, but hormonal therapy is performed for preserving fertility. In general, fertility-preserving treatment is considered for AEH or EEC with well-differentiation and lesions confined to the endometrium without myometrial invasion. According to previous studies, hormonal therapy in these patients responded relatively well. Nevertheless, recurrence was not uncommon, accounting for 26.0% in AEH and 40.6% in EC. The standard treatment for these recurrent patients is hysterectomy, but if there is no myometrial invasion and no extrauterine lesions, repeated hormonal treatment can be considered. However, studies targeting these patients have been very scarce. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of high-dose progesterone therapy in recurrence following fertility preserving therapy for AEH or EEC. Methods: KGOG2031 is a multi-center and prospective phase 2 trial. The primary endpoint is a 2-year disease free survival. The secondary endpoints were duration of disease-free survival, overall survival, response rate, adverse events, and infertile rates. Patients with recurrent AEH or EEC without myometrial invasion or extrauterine lesions who underwent high-dose MPA therapy for primary lesions were included. The inclusion criteria are limited to patients with less than two recurrences. The pathologic type for EEC was confined to endometrioid type. The patients should be confirmed histologically at least one complete remission after first treatment. Patients with myometrial invasion, cervical involvement, or extrauterine lesions observed on abdominal/chest computed tomography or pelvic magnetic resonance imaging were excluded. Furthermore, grade 2 or 3 of endometrioid or any grade of other pathologic type of endometrial cancer or non-atypical endometrial hyperplasia were excluded. The enrolled patients should take medroxyprogesterone acetate 500mg every day. D&amp;CB will be performed after anesthesia every 8 weeks to determine the effectiveness, and treatment will be continued for up to 40 weeks until complete remission is achieved. The target number of enrollment is 115 cases, and the recruitment period is 3 years. The follow-up duration is 2 years after the end of treatment, and the total study duration was up to 5 years.
