A previously molecularly classified cohort of 412 high-grade EC from the Danish Cancer Registry was extensively reviewed by 2 expert pathologists blinded for associated clinical and molecular data. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was performed to determine ER, PR, and L1CAM status and a 10% cut-off value was applied for positivity. Shallow whole-genomic sequencing (sWGS) and next-generation sequencing (NGS) was performed to describe the molecular landscape. Survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method, and survival difference was tested using the log-rank test. Of the 57 high-grade NSMP tumors, ER negativity was found in 30 (53%). All clear cell NSMP EC (n=12, 21%) were ER negative. L1CAM overexpression was found in 29 high-grade NSMP EC (53%) and showed overlap (n=20, 69%) with ER negativity. A high frequency of copy number (CN) events and fraction genome altered (FGA) was observed, with the median number of CN events clustering by ER status (28 vs. 43, P<0.05).
