Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Activating mutations in FGFR2 have been identified as potential therapeutic targets in endometrial cancer, typically occurring alongside genetic alterations that disrupt the mTOR pathway, such as PTEN loss. These observations suggest that the mTOR pathway may act in concert with oncogenic FGFR2 to drive endometrial cancer growth in a subset of patients. The aim of this study was to examine the...
