Basic information

Biomarker: MMR protein

Histology type: endometrial carcinoma

Cohort characteristics

Country: Finland

Region: Helsinki

Study type: single institution retrospective study

Followed up time :

Subgroup 1 name : MMR-D

Subgroup 1 number: 287

Subgroup 2 name: NSMP

Subgroup 2 number: 218

Total number Group I Group I number Group II Group II number Group III Group III number Group IV Group IV number
505 MMR-D cohort 287 NSMP subgroup 218

Sample information

Conclusion: MMR protein and MLH1 methylation status predict the response to adjuvant therapy in endometrial cancer.

Sample type : tissue

Sample method: immunohistochemistry,Methylation‐specific multiplex ligation‐dependent probe amplification,

Expression pattern : methylation status

Expression elevation: MMR deficient (MMR‐D) tumors were identified as MLH1 methylated or nonmethylated by methylation‐specific multiplex ligation‐dependent probe amplification. .Tumors with a methylation ratio >0.15 (corresponding to 15% of methylated DNA) in region C and/or region D were considered hypermethylated.
