Abstract excerpt
TP53 mutations are considered a surrogate biomarker of the serous-like 'copy number high' molecular subtype of endometrial carcinoma (EC). In ovarian carcinoma, p53 immunohistochemistry (IHC) accurately reflects mutational status with almost 100% specificity but its performance in EC has not been established. This study tested whether p53 IHC reliably predicts TP53 mutations identified by next-generation...
