How do you typically approach biomarker testing for advanced endometrial cancer?

When do you test/retest, and what type of testing do you perform?
Which biomarkers do you generally access (eg, mismatch repair/microsatellite instability, POLE, TP53, etc) and how do results help guide your treatment approach?
