TTN Mutation in Endometrial Endometrioid Carcinoma Is Associated with Poor Clinical Outcomes and High Tumor Mutation Burden

Endometrioid endometrial carcinoma (EEC) stands as a prevalent gynecologic malignancy in developed regions. However, predicting relapse cases remains challenging, necessitating the identification of a novel biomarker for EEC relapse. The assessment of tumor mutational burden (TMB) is pivotal for immunotherapy in EEC patients. However, both whole-exome sequencing (WES) and targeted sequencing encountered application-related difficulties. In light of this, standardized and simplified techniques for TMB measurement are imperative. In this study, we employed WES on 25 EEC patients (12 relapsed cases and 13 non-relapsed cases) who accepted hysterectomy surgery (CHCAMS cohort). We additionally obtained a total of 391 tumor samples with clinicopathological features from TCGA website to broaden the study cohort. In the CHCAMS cohort, the
