Multiple clinical practice guidelines for the treatment of endometrial cancer (EC) recommend consideration of molecular testing, particularly for high-grade tumors. Yet despite its prognostic value, molecular classification is not always a part of standard risk assessment in EC. Clinical uptake has been highly variable, particularly in limited-resource areas, even though recent data shows molecular classification has value in therapeutic decision-making and is prognostic for treatment response in EC. Lack of clinical uptake has resulted in overtreatment of some EC patients and undertreatment of others.
During this informational podcast, leading national endometrial cancer experts, Drs. Richard Penson and Matthew Powell, will discuss molecular classification of EC and the clinical data supporting its value in EC care.
