Women living with ovarian cancer usually go under-recognized, and are often medically and otherwise underserved BigstockAs many as 30 countries will participate in the studyThe World Ovarian Cancer Coalition is set to launch a new study that will look at the experiences of women with ovarian cancer living in settings that for a number of reasons are not sufficiently understood, usually go under-recognized, and are often medically and otherwise underserved. The Coalition is launching the “Every Woman Study™️: Low- and Middle-Income Edition” study in partnership with the International Gynecologic Cancer Society (IGCS). Their experience and perspectives are expected to strengthen the Coalition’s commitment to health equity and the global ovarian cancer community, from low- to middle- to high-income countries. The Coalition is also planning programs for the 10th World Ovarian Cancer Day. On May 8, 2022, the global ovarian cancer community will be called upon to rally together to ensure that no woman is left behind, regardless of cancer type, geography, finances, or situation.
