People with advanced #EndometrialCancer now have new FDA-approved treatment options: pembrolizumab and durvalumab, paired with chemotherapy, for tumors with a genetic change called mismatch repair deficiency. https://t.co/NnZoeLR5oO

[Dr.Monica Avila @MAvilaMD]

Can endometrial cancer staging be so radically restructured in absence of new data for same old histologic markers? Not to mention incorporation of molecular #TCGA classification whose therapeutic intervention/outcomes have yet to be proven and are being actively studied...smh

@JSilby3, I know him! Nice work, boss.

You can assist in spreading awareness about Gynecologic Cancers by RT this post.

Every 5 minutes, a person is diagnosed with gynecologic cancer. @AmericanCancer estimates about 109,000 new cases diagnosed and approximately 33,000 deaths from gyn cancers in the U.S. each year.

Ovarian cancer was once named "the silent killer" because symptoms weren't thought to develop until the chance of cure was poor. Recent studies have shown this term is untrue and, these signs are likely to occur in women with #OvarianCancer
