• Summary: Endometrial cancer is a prevalent disease worldwide. There are different kinds of endometrial cancers and their treatment is based on the specific type of cancer—termed the histologic type, and the extent of disease spread—termed stage. The pathology diagnosis of the specific type of endometrial cancer is improving because of our ability to identify specific gene mutations that are unique to the different histologic groups of endometrial cancer. Discovering more about these gene mutations will enable us to design better, more personalized treatment, and avoid having patients try medicines that may not be effective at eliminating their tumor cells. In this current research investigation, we studied a rare sub group of endometrial cancers called mixed carcinomas. There are currently no treatment guidelines for this particular group, and we wanted to learn more about their gene mutations in order to better guide future therapy.
