Protein signatures for the early detection of endometrial cancer in cervico-vaginal fluid.
Protein signatures in blood show promise for early endometrial cancer detection, though rigorous validation is still needed.
Endometrial cancer is the most common gynecological malignancy in high-income countries. While current evidence is encouraging, most candidate biomarkers remain exploratory and require rigorous validation in large, prospective multicentre studies before incorporation into routine clinical practice.
