Biomarker Guided Treatment in Gynaecological Cancer

MoMaTEC2 aims to test, in clinically oriented studies, the applicability of already identified and promising molecular biomarkers, to promote individualisation of treatment for patients with endometrial cancer. Predominantly, but not exclusively, such biomarkers have shown to be interesting in retrospective analysis of our large prospectively collected MoMaTEC1 series. Part 1: Performance of a phase 4 implementation trial for optimised stratification of surgical treatment, specifically the performance of (para-aortic and pelvic) lymphadenectomy guided by validated biomarkers. Part 2: Performance of a phase 2b clinical biomarker study to evaluate the predictive potential of the biomarker stathmin for taxane treatment response in endometrial and ovarian cancer. In this study stathmin will be used as integrated biomarker.
