Physicians and scientists from Fred Hutch Cancer Center and UW Medicine are constantly researching, developing and testing new treatments for gynecologic cancers and new ways to use current treatments.

Through this work, we are looking for answers to two main questions: How can we do even better at controlling or curing these diseases? How can we make treatments less toxic and easier on patients? 

When your care team designs your treatment plan, they will give you the choice to join clinical trials that match your situation. If you decide to join one, you will see the same physicians and nurses as you would for standard therapy. Your care team will talk with you about if you might want to join a particular study and why. This can help you make the decision that is best for you.

Gynecologic Cancer Clinical Trials 

Fred Hutch typically has over 750 active cancer clinical trials enrolling participants. 

Clinical trials may allow some patients access to a promising new treatment, and help physicians and researchers learn more about a disease. 

Our Gynecologic Cancer Researchers and Faculty

Our scientists and providers work together to prevent, diagnose and treat gynecologic cancers as well as other cancers and diseases. The lab research and clinical research they do are essential parts of the scientific process that leads to new treatments and better care. Clinical trials can also be a way for patients to get early access to new leading-edge therapies. Our research teams are running many clinical studies for people with gynecologic cancers.
