Red Flag Origin

DefinitionFrailty profile precluding standard carbo+pacli ± pembro / dostarlimab in advanced/recurrent endometrial: ECOG ≥3, OR age ≥75 with ≥2 comorbidities, OR composite (age ≥70 + albumin <3.0 + Charlson ≥3), OR explicit "unfit for combination chemotherapy". Endometrial cancer median age at diagnosis is ~63 with rising incidence in elderly.

Notes

Frail elderly options: single-agent carboplatin (well tolerated, ORR 20-30%), weekly paclitaxel, or hormonal therapy (megestrol acetate / medroxyprogesterone) for ER/PR+ low-grade tumors. Pembrolizumab / dostarlimab monotherapy for dMMR/MSI-H is well tolerated even in frail patients (RUBY/NRG-GY018 included elderly subgroup with preserved benefit). Cardiac assessment baseline mandatory before doxorubicin (especially in carcinosarcoma backbone). Geriatric assessment (G8 / CGA) prior to regimen selection.
