- Gynecologic Oncology Group
- Brief Summary
RATIONALE: Studying samples of tumor tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors identify and learn more about biomarkers related to cancer.
PURPOSE: This research study is studying at biomarkers in tissue samples from patients with stage I or stage III endometrial cancer.
- Detailed Description
OBJECTIVES:
* To identify microRNA expression patterns associated with lymph node metastasis in samples from patients with endometrial cancer.
OUTLINE: Banked tumor tissue specimens are analyzed for microRNA expression profiling by microarray analysis and reverse transcriptase-PCR assays.
