Endometrial carcinoma of the prostate is a unique lesion which contrasts markedly to the more ubiquitous prostatic acinar carcinoma with regard to morphology, clinical manifestations, localization stage at diagnosis, and possibly prognosis. Although endometrial carcinoma of the prostate may occur more commonly than previously recognized, wider recognition and study are essential for further delineation of this lesion. Finally, the inherent limits of endoscopic or of enucleative surgery and the propensity of endometrial carcinoma to present at a low stage suggest in appropriately selected cases that radical prostatectomy or possible external radiotherapy may offer the best opportunity for cure.

Trends and ethnic disparity in endometrial cancer mortality in South Africa (1999-2018): A population-based Age-period-cohort and Join point regression analyses.
PLoS One
January 2025
Division of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, School of Public Health, University of Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, South Africa.
Background: Endometrial cancer is the sixth leading cause of cancer among females and about 97,000 global deaths of endometrial cancer. The changes in the trends of obesity, fertility rates and other risk factors in South Africa (SA) may impact the endometrial cancer trends. The aim of this study was to utilise the age period cohort and join point regression modelling to evaluate the national and ethnic trends in endometrial cancer mortality in South Africa over a 20year period (1999-2018).

Background: Talabostat, an oral small molecule inhibitor of dipeptidyl peptidases (DPP4 and DPP8/9), has shown synergistic activity with immune checkpoint inhibitors in preclinical studies. This open label, phase 2 basket trial assessed the antitumor activity of combining talabostat and pembrolizumab (anti-programmed death-1 antibody) in advanced solid tumor patients.
Methods: The primary objective was assessment of dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) rates in the first six patients (lead-in stage) and response rate (efficacy stage; included cohort A [checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) naive] and cohort B [ICI pretreated]) for the study treatment using the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.

Objective: To determine the accuracy of aspiration biopsy (AB), hysteroscopic biopsy (HB), and dilatation & curettage (D&C) in detecting uterine carcinosarcoma (UCS).
Methods: Pathology reports were retrieved from the Dutch Nationwide Pathology Databank PALGA for patients with a certain or suggested diagnosis of UCS in pre- and/or postoperative histology between 2001 and 2021. Patients without available pre- or postoperative pathology reports were excluded.
High FGF18 expression levels predict poor prognosis in endometrial carcinoma patients and promote tumor growth and metastasis.

Objective: To investigate if fibroblast growth factor 18 (FGF18) expression plays an important role in endometrial carcinoma (EC).
Methods: The clinicopathological associations and prognostic value of FGF18 expression were retrospectively analyzed in 190 patients with EC. FGF18 expression was stably knocked down in EC cell lines.

Patients with endometrial neoplasia (EN) often have multiple comorbidities and a higher surgical risk. Prehabilitation programs (PPs) combine various interventions to improve preoperative conditions and reduce impairment due to surgical stress. We conducted a pragmatic pilot study to evaluate the acceptability and feasibility of a trimodal telehealth PP (exercise, nutrition, and psychological support) for EN patients.
