Ketohexokinase Isoforms in Endometrial Cancer.

Recruiting
Conditions
Endometrial Cancer
Registration Number
NCT03931265
Lead Sponsor
Far Eastern Memorial Hospital
Brief Summary

Our preliminary analysis with clinical database suggested that, in patients with type I endometrial cancer, high ketohexokinase-expressing group have lower survival probabilities than low ketohexokinase-expressing group. To understand the importance of ketohexokinase expression and isoform switch during the development of type I endometrial cancer, we propose a series of in vitro experiments and clinical examinations in this project.
