ABSTRACTIntroductionEndometrial cancer (EC) is the most common gynecological cancer in developed countries. The ESGO/ESTRO/ESP updated evidence-based guidelines in 2020, introducing molecular classification to guide EC treatment. The genomic-based approach has identified four prognostic subgroups of EC. Each of these may benefit from a tailored treatment depending on the molecular profile, the histotype, and stage of disease for the adjuvant and the metastatic/recurrent setting. Several clinical trials are now ongoing to identify the best treatment according to the molecular profile of EC.Areas coveredThis review analyzes tailored treatment for EC according to the molecular profile, both in the adjuvant and in the metastatic/recurrent setting. The authors review the results of clinical studies and highlight ongoing trials.Expert opinionSeveral new agents are under evaluation in order to personalize EC treatment according to specific molecular profiles in the adjuvant, advanced, and recurrent settings. Clinical trials investigating the impact of molecular classification have yielded encouraging results. EC can no longer be considered a single tumor entity susceptible to a single treatment modality but rather be split into four distinct types, requiring tailored treatments.
