Table 2. Classification of clusters A and B.

  Cluster A Cluster B P-value
Histology
HGSC 2 7 0.0007
EC 14 1  
Organ
Ovary 6 4 0.6734
Endometrium 10 4  
Total 16 8  
    (Fisher's exact test)

Abbreviations: EC=grade 1 endometrioid carcinoma; HGSC=high-grade serous carcinoma.

In cluster A, by histological type, 14 of 16 tumour samples were ECs and only 2 were HGSCs. In cluster B, 7 of 8 samples were HGSCs and only 1 was EC (P=0.0007). However, by organs, in cluster A, 10 of the 16 samples were from endometrial cancer and 6 of 10 were ovarian cancer. In cluster B, 4 of 8 samples were ovarian cancer and 4 were endometrial cancer (P=0.6734).
