    • Aneuploidy related transcriptional changes in endometrial cancer link low expression of chromosome 15q genes to poor survival 

      Mauland, Karen Klepsland; Wik, Elisabeth; Høivik, Erling Andre; Kusonmano, Kanthida; Halle, Mari Kyllesø; Berg, Anna; Haugland, Hans Kristian; Øyan, Anne Margrete; Kalland, Karl-Henning; Stefansson, Ingunn Marie; Akslen, Lars A.; Krakstad, Camilla; Trovik, Jone; Werner, Henrica Maria Johanna; Salvesen, Helga Birgitte (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)
      Aneuploidy is a widely studied prognostic marker in endometrial cancer (EC), however, not implemented in clinical decision-making. It lacks validation in large prospective patient cohorts adjusted for currently standard ...

    • Context-related biomarkers in endometrial cancer. A study with focus on obesity and genomic alterations 

      Mauland, Karen Klepsland (Doctoral thesis, 2017-06-09)
      Background: Endometrial cancer is the most common female pelvic gynaecologic malignancy in industrialised countries, and incidence has been increasing over the past decades. This has partly been ascribed to the increasing ...

    • HER2 expression patterns in paired primary and metastatic endometrial cancer lesions 

      Halle, Mari Kyllesø; Tangen, Ingvild Løberg; Berg, Hege Fredriksen; Hoivik, Erling A; Mauland, Karen Klepsland; Kusonmano, Kanthida; Berg, Anna; Hurtado, Antoni; Kalland, Karl-Henning; Øyan, Anne Margrete; Stefansson, Ingunn; Vintermyr, Olav Karsten; Werner, Henrica Maria Johanna; Haldorsen, Ingfrid S.; Trovik, Jone; Salvesen, Helga Birgitte; Krakstad, Camilla (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-11-23)
      Background: Despite successful implementation of drugs targeting the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) receptor in breast and gastric cancers, the potential of HER2 as a therapeutic target in other cancers ...

    • High BMI is significantly associated with positive progesterone receptor status and clinico-pathological markers for non-aggressive disease in endometrial cancer 

      Mauland, Karen Klepsland; Trovik, Jone; Wik, Elisabeth; Ræder, Maria B.; Njølstad, Tormund Salvesen; Stefansson, Ingunn Marie; Øyan, Anne Margrete; Kalland, Karl-Henning; Bjørge, Tone; Akslen, Lars A.; Salvesen, Helga Birgitte (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011)
      Background: Endometrial cancer incidence is increasing in industrialised countries. High body mass index (BMI, kg m−2) is associated with higher risk for disease. We wanted to investigate if BMI is related to clinico-pathological ...

    • High visceral fat percentage is associated with poor outcome in endometrial cancer 

      Mauland, Karen Klepsland; Eng, Øyvin Andre Solberg; Ytre-Hauge, Sigmund; Tangen, Ingvild Løberg; Berg, Anna; Salvesen, Helga; Salvesen, Øyvind; Krakstad, Camilla; Trovik, Jone; Høivik, Erling Andre; Werner, Henrica Maria Johanna; Mellgren, Gunnar; Haldorsen, Ingfrid S. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-10-19)
      Despite evidence of increased endometrial cancer (EC) risk in obese women, the impact of obesity on clinical and histological phenotype is poorly understood. This study explored abdominal fat volumes and fat distribution ...

    • PIK3CA exon9 mutations associate with reduced survival, and are highly concordant between matching primary tumors and metastases in endometrial cancer 

      Mjøs, Siv; Werner, Henrica Maria Johanna; Birkeland, Even; Holst, Frederik; Berg, Anna; Halle, Mari Kyllesø; Tangen, Ingvild Løberg; Kusonmano, Kanthida; Mauland, Karen Klepsland; Øyan, Anne Margrete; Kalland, Karl-Henning; Lewis, Aurelia Eva; Mills, Gordon B.; Krakstad, Camilla; Trovik, Jone; Salvesen, Helga; Høivik, Erling Andre (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-08-31)
      Mutations of the phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K) catalytic subunit alpha gene (PIK3CA) are frequent in endometrial cancer. We sequenced exon9 and exon20 of PIK3CA in 280 primary endometrial cancers to assess the relationship ...

    • Tissue and imaging biomarkers for hypoxia predict poor outcome in endometrial cancer 

      Berg, Anna; Fasmer, Kristine Eldevik; Mauland, Karen Klepsland; Ytre-Hauge, Sigmund; Høivik, Erling Andre; Husby, Jenny Hild Aase; Tangen, Ingvild Løberg; Trovik, Jone; Halle, Mari Kyllesø; Woie, Kathrine; Bjørge, Line; Bjørnerud, Atle; Salvesen, Helga; Werner, Henrica Maria Johanna; Krakstad, Camilla; Haldorsen, Ingfrid S. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-09-13)
      Hypoxia is frequent in solid tumors and linked to aggressive phenotypes and therapy resistance. We explored expression patterns of the proposed hypoxia marker HIF-1α in endometrial cancer (EC) and investigate whether ...
