Objective: To characterize and compare the molecular subtypes and profiles of prospectively-accrued newly-diagnosed early- and advanced-stage endometrial cancers (ECs). Methods: EC patients consented to an IRB-approved protocol of massively parallel sequencing of 410–468 cancer-related genes; 175 ECs of 7 histologic types (n = 135 FIGO stages...
