This study identified a unique set of POLE mutations in Indian EC patients associated with poor prognosis, which were particularly pronounced in advanced stages. Advanced stage of presentation, type of POLE mutations, and possibly ethnicity are predictors of adverse outcomes in POLE-mutated EC. The present study highlights ethnicity as a determinant of phenotypic expression of genetic change.
