Overview
Prediction of preoperative endometrial biopsy: the evolution from hyperplasia to cancer, the prognosis and the risk of recurrence. Intelligence methods artificial risk will be used to redefine the current risk classes including our profile immuno-mutational to provide a more precise characterization and closer to the real prognosis of the patient.
Description
Identify new risk factors for endometrial cancer, using an integrated multi-omics approach linked to a specific immune pattern (called MOMIMIC score) useful for improving oncology and surgery precision. The aim is to evaluate the predictive value of the MOMIMIC score for early identification of progression from precancerous lesions to endometrial carcinoma, prognosis and relapses, to help the clinician in the decision to treatments. Through the identification during hysteroscopy of the most appropriate site for biopsies targeted endometrials, through an artificial intelligence algorithm applied to the video system hysteroscopic which, by comparing the information from the omics approach and the hysteroscopic image combined with radiogenomic information, it could help the gynecologist in the procedure and provide information on the prognosis through the omics-iconographic profile in order to calculate a preoperative predictive score. Furthermore by modulating the surgical radicality, according to the information obtained, there will be a tendency to preserve fertility in young patients with a low-risk profile (since currently the risk factors are not sufficient to discriminate for a non-treatment radical). This will help the surgeon through an artificial intelligence algorithm applied to the system robotic/laparoscopic video, will guide the operator in decision-making procedures regarding the resection margins tumor, metastasis localization, pathological lymph node detection, and imaging driven by biomolecular information.
