Synopsis

The adjuvant treatment of endometrial carcinomas took a different turn when ESGO/ESTRO/ESP announced its prognostic risk group guide in 2020. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) Research Network Classification and the Proactive Molecular Risk Classifier for Endometrial Cancer (ProMisE) algorithm were integrated into clinical practice. Therefore, by combining genomic traits with molecular subtypes, doctors have enhanced patient care and risk stratification for endometrial cancer. Surgery (hysterectomy and bilateral salphingooopherectomy with or without lymph node dissection) is the primary treatment for early-stage, low-grade, low-risk tumors. Vaginal brachytherapy in an adjuvant setting has secured the treatment success for local control. Intermediate-high-risk cancer patients are scheduled for adjuvant chemoradiation and/or vaginal brachytherapy.
