This study evaluates surgical strategies for treating patients with FIGO 2023 stage I and II high-risk endometrial cancer (EC) exhibiting p53 mutations. The trial aims to assess whether a less invasive sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping approach provides non-inferior oncological outcomes compared to the current standard of systematic pelvic and para-aortic lymphadenectomy (PL+PALND). By minimizing surgical morbidity, this study seeks to determine if SLN mapping can safely replace comprehensive lymphadenectomy without compromising disease-free survival (DFS). Eligible patients will be randomized to undergo either sentinel lymph node mapping or complete lymphadenectomy, followed by standard hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. The primary outcome is DFS at 36 months, with secondary outcomes including overall survival, disease-specific survival, perioperative complications, and quality of life.

The necessity of extensive lymph node dissection in endometrial cancer remains a subject of debate. Although systematic pelvic and para-aortic lymphadenectomy (PL+PALND) improves disease staging and influences adjuvant therapy, its impact on survival in high-risk endometrial cancer (EC) is still controversial. Recent evidence suggests that SLN mapping may provide comparable staging accuracy while reducing surgical complications. However, the oncological safety of replacing PL+PALND with SLN mapping in high-risk EC patients, particularly those with p53 mutations, remains uncertain. This study is designed as a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled trial to evaluate the non-inferiority of SLN mapping versus PL+PALND in patients with high-risk EC characterized by p53 mutations. Patients will be stratified based on tumor histology and imaging findings before undergoing surgery. The trial will enroll 374 patients across 22 participating centers. Key issues addressed include: * Oncological Safety: Assessing whether SLN mapping provides equivalent DFS compared to PL+PALND. * Survival Outcomes: Evaluating overall survival (OS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) at 36 months. * Surgical Morbidity: Comparing perioperative and postoperative complications * Quality of Life: Determining patient-reported outcomes related to surgical recovery and long-term functional status. This study integrates modern molecular classifications, recognizing p53 mutations as a significant prognostic marker. If SLN mapping is proven non-inferior, it could lead to a paradigm shift, reducing the extent of surgical intervention for high-risk EC patients while maintaining oncological safety.
