Ketohexokinase Isoforms in Endometrial Cancer.
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Our preliminary analysis with clinical database suggested that, in patients with type I endometrial cancer, high ketohexokinase-expressing group have lower survival probabilities than low ketohexokinase-expressing group. To understand the importance of ketohexokinase expression and isoform switch during the development of type I endometrial cancer, we propose a series of in vitro experiments and clinical examinations in this project.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- The role of ketohexokinase isoforms in the overall survival of endometrial cancer. [5 years]
Cox proportional hazard regression to evaluate the role of ketohexokinase isoforms in the overall survival of endometrial cancer.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Correlation of ketohexokinase isoforms with the other prognostic risk factors [5 years]
Correlation of ketohexokinase isoforms with deep myometrial invasion, tumor grade, lymph node metastasis, FIGO stage, tumor size, progression-free survival, etc.
