简要总结
EUGENIE is a prospective multicentre interventional study, focused on improving endometrial cancer (EC) assessment by combining the new technique of genomic profiling with surgical extra uterine disease assessment. The investigators aim to correlate EC stage to each of the molecular subgroups of disease and thereby guide surgical treatment and staging of EC by determining the association between molecular classification and disease stage and evaluating if and how disease stage in each of the molecular subgroups associates with prognosis.
详细描述
Current treatment for endometrial cancer (EC) includes a hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. Further surgical staging procedures (lymphadenectomy, peritoneum, and/or omentum biopsies) can be performed in order to detect metastases and determine the disease stage. The type and extent of this surgical staging depend on a pre-operative risk assessment and guides adjuvant treatment (chemo- or radiotherapy). However, this pre-operative risk assessment based on histology and imaging is relatively inaccurate: first, preoperative histology presents high intersubjective variability leading to poor reproducibility in the assignment of histotype and the concordance between preoperative histology and final histology is poor. In addition, preoperative imaging modalities are expensive, time-consuming, hampered by non-perfect accuracies, require specialized expertise, or present limitations in reproducibility and availability. As a result, this leads to an incorrect risk estimation of metastases at diagnosis in EC patients with a consequent over- or undertreatment of patients. Thus, there is an urgent need to develop risk stratification strategies that will better predict the presence and localization of metastases in EC patients and therefore more efficiently tailor surgical staging procedures.
In 2013 The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) Research Network developed a new molecularly driven classification system, that divides EC tumours into the well-known four molecular subgroups (POLE, MMRd, p53abn, NSMP) and has shown to surpass histologic subtyping and grading to more efficiently predict prognosis. However, the relation between the four molecular subgroups and the risk of tumour spread beyond the uterus at diagnosis has insufficiently been investigated so far and, as a consequence, surgical staging should not yet be adapted based on the molecular endometrial cancer subtype.
Thus, new studies are needed to assess the value of surgical staging in this molecular era and EUGENIE Study has been developed to bridge this knowledge gap.
The investigators believe that the future is in integrating morphologic and molecular findings, so the preoperative diagnosis will also support accurate surgical decision making and therefore a more tailored management of all EC patients.

研究组 & 干预措施
All women older than 18 newly diagnosed with endometrial cancer of all stages and histotypes
All patients must undergo total hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy or bilateral salpingectomy if premenopausal status and the lymph-node assessment according to European guidelines and local protocol. A comprehensive surgical peritoneal staging is required, which includes omentectomy/omental biopsies and six peritoneal biopsies.
干预措施: total hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, lymph node staging and comprehensive peritoneal staging (Procedure)
结局指标
主要结局
Endometrial cancer stage
时间窗: 72 months
Endometrial cancer stage assessed according to the 2009 an 2023 International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) staging
Molecular type of endometrial cancer
时间窗: 72 months
Tumor classification using the molecular classification as proposed by either ProMisE or TRANSPORTEC. Groups will be classified as follows: 1. MMR: Mismatch Repair Protein Status will be determined as a surrogate for microsatellite instability (MSI) by considering the immunohistochemical (IHC) staining of the MMR proteins. In case of loss of staining of one or more MMR proteins, the EC will be classified as MMR deficient (MMRd), otherwise, the carcinoma will be coded as MMR proficient (MMRp). 2. POLE: if the POLE exonuclease domain mutations (EDM) gene is mutated (i.e. a pathogenic mutation), the tumour will be classified as POLE. 3. p53 IHC: TP53 mutation status will be determined via IHC and in case of inconclusive p53 staining, also sequencing. 4. NSMP: a carcinoma that has not been stratified into groups 1), 2) or 3) will be categorized into the NSMP (no specific molecular profile or copy number low).
次要结局
- Overall survival(72 months)
- Time to recurrence(72 months)
