The Foundation for Women’s Cancer was founded in 1991 and has steadfastly pursued its mission of funding for gynecologic cancer research and training, and the prevention, early detection and optimal treatment of gynecologic cancers.

The Society of Gynecologic Oncology (SGO) is the premier medical specialty society for health care professionals trained in the comprehensive management of gynecologic cancers. As a 501(c)(6) organization, the SGO contributes to the advancement of women’s cancer care by encouraging research, providing education, raising standards of practice, advocating for patients and members and collaborating with other domestic and international organizations.

Clinical trials are essential to making progress against cancer. ClinicalTrials.gov is a resource that provides patients, their family members, health care professionals, researchers, and the public with easy access to information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies on a wide range of diseases and conditions. The Web site is maintained by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) at the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
