Abstrakt: The objective of the present study was to characterize the molecular features of endometrial carcinomas with ambiguous histology. Eighteen carcinomas that could not be conclusively typed based on morphology and immunohistochemistry underwent analysis of mismatch repair (MMR) status, microsatellite status, and whole-exome sequencing. None of the tumors had pathogenic POLE mutation. Twelve tumors (67%) were microsatellite stable, and 6 (33%) had microsatellite instability. Fourteen tumors (78%) harbored TP53 mutations, and 2 (11%) had mutations in MMR genes. Eleven carcinomas (61%) were classified as copy number high and 7 (39%) as MSI-hypermutated, the latter including 3 tumors with TP53 mutation who concomitantly had MSI or mutation in a MMR gene. Other mutations that were found in > 1 tumor affected MUC16 (7 tumors), PIK3CA (6 tumors), PPP2R1A (6 tumors), ARID1A (5 tumors), PTEN (5 tumors), FAT1 (4 tumors), FAT4 (3 tumors), BRCA2 (2 tumors), ERBB2 (2 tumors), FBXW7 (2 tumors), MET (2 tumors), MTOR (2 tumors), JAK1 (2 tumors), and CSMD3 (2 tumors). At the last follow-up (median = 68.6 months), 8 patients had no evidence of disease, 1 patient was alive with disease, 8 patients were dead of disease, and 1 patient died of other cause. In conclusion, based on this series, the molecular landscape of endometrial carcinomas with ambiguous histology is dominated by TP53 mutations and the absence of POLE mutations, with heterogeneous molecular profile with respect to other genes. A high proportion of these tumors is clinically aggressive.
