Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
It is expected to map the prevalence of molecular alterations and describe the proportion of cases with microsatellite instability in a population of two hundred women with endometrial carcinoma. This outcome will be measured through laboratory immunohistochemistry assays for the detection of mismatch repair proteins, estrogen and progesterone receptors, tumor protein fifty-three, and human epidermal growth factor receptor two, associated with Next-Generation Sequencing for genetic evaluation of the genes mutL homolog one, mutS homolog two, mutS homolog six, postmeiotic segregation increased two, human epidermal growth factor receptor two, tumor protein fifty-three, and polymerase epsilon. Laboratory data will be measured and evaluated from tissue samples collected at the baseline of the study and processed within the maximum two-year follow-up period of the protocol.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
It is expected to observe overall survival and disease progression-free or recurrence-free survival rates, in addition to identifying the main time bottlenecks in each participant's diagnostic and treatment journey. These outcomes will be statistically measured by survival estimation curves constructed using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using the logrank test, while clinicopathological and sociodemographic associations will be quantitatively evaluated using Pearson's chi-square tests and Student's t-test. Clinical and temporal data of the participants will be systematically collected and extracted from medical records continuously during scheduled visits at months zero, three, six, twelve, and twenty-four of follow-up.
