Key Takeaways from Webinar Viewers:

• Uterine cancer is on the rise and is disproportionally affecting non-Hispanic Black women. The epidemic of obesity in the United States is one of the main reasons behind the overall rise of the disease.
• Molecular screening is becoming more important in uterine cancer and will be added to guidelines going forward.
• Major uterine cancer news out of SGO was from two Stage 3 research trials which added immunotherapy to chemotherapy for advanced or recurrent disease. Results were very good and this will be game-changing in terms of standard of care.
