Summary:Endometrial cancer remains the most common gynecological cancer in Europe and the US, with excellent survival rates in patients with early-stage disease.^1^ However, the prognosis of advanced/metastatic endometrial cancer is dismal. There is a considerable need to refine treatment options in the adjuvant and metastatic settings, especially after the failure of first-line platinum-based chemotherapy.
