Understanding the impact of spatial immunophenotypes on the survival of endometrial cancer patients through the ProMisE classification.

Cancer Immunol Immunother

Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Graduate School of Medicine, Nagoya University, 65, Tsurumai-Cho, Showa-Ku, Nagoya, Aichi, 466-8560, Japan.

Objectives: We focused on how the immunophenotypes based on the distribution of CD8-positive tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) relate to the endometrial cancer (EC) molecular subtypes and patients' prognosis.

Patients And Methods: Two cohorts of EC patients (total n = 145) were analyzed and categorized using the Molecular Risk Classifier for Endometrial cancer (ProMisE): POLEmut (POLE mutation), MMRd (mismatch repair deficiency), NSMP (no specific molecular profile), and p53abn (p53 abnormality). CD8-positive TILs, within the central tumor and the invasive margin, were examined by using immunohistochemical staining and advanced image-analysis software.

Objective: This study provides a comprehensive analysis of endometrial cancer incidence trends in Hong Kong over the past three decades. It aims to evaluate the impact of demographic shifts and epidemiological factors, including age, birth cohort, and diagnosis period, on the incidence rates. The study also projects future trends in endometrial cancer cases up to 2030 and assesses the contributions of these factors using a detailed decomposition approach.

Lynch Syndrome (LS) is a hereditary disorder characterized by genetic mutations in DNA mismatch repair genes, affecting approximately 0.35% of the population. LS primarily increases the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC), as well as various other cancer types like endometrial, breast, and gastric cancers.
