Proteomic analysis uncovers biological diversity in molecularly defined endometrial carcinomas.

ABSTRACT: While endometrial cancer has an overall favorable prognosis, some patients have poor outcomes and may benefit from further refinements of the current classification systems. Molecular classification stratifies endometrial cancer patients into four prognostic subtypes: POLEmut, MMRd (mismatch repair deficient), p53abn, and NSMP (no specific molecular profile), where patients with POLEmut have the best prognosis and p53abn has the worst prognosis. We used proteomic profiling to assess if additional prognostic or predictive information could be identified across or within molecular subtypes. Global proteome profiling of formalin fixed, paraffin embedded samples, that had clinicopathologic and outcome data, was performed on 184 endometrial cancers encompassing all four molecular subtypes, incl
