Biomarker Facts

Biomarker typeclinical_composite
Mutation details{"exon": "6-12 (proofreading / exonuclease domain)", "functional_impact": "loss of proofreading fidelity → ultra-high TMB, hypermutator phenotype (analogous to POLE-EDM)", "gene": "POLD1", "variant_type": "missense (pathogenic exonuclease-domain)"}
Measurement
MethodNGS panel covering POLD1 exonuclease domain. Pathogenic somatic or germline variants confer hypermutator phenotype. Less common than POLE-EDM but mechanistically analogous; co-call with TMB.

Notes

Less frequent than POLE-EDM but mechanistically equivalent. Grouped with POLE in TCGA/TransPORTEC integrated endometrial classification. Triggers the same Stage I de-escalation logic (RF-POLE-POLD1-ENDOMETRIAL-LOW-RISK + IND-ENDOMETRIAL-STAGE-I-POLE-OBSERVATION). Germline variants implicate PPAP — refer to genetic counseling.
