Project GEOCC needs responses from the USA

News Releases
Jun 8, 2022

You may recall that the Society of Gynecologic Oncology (SGO) is partnering with the International Gynecologic Cancer Society (IGCS) on an initiative to assess and address ovarian cancer care at a global level.

Upon preliminary analysis of the data collected from Project GEOCC survey, IGCS has not yet received enough responses from gynecologic cancer practitioners in the United States to reach the target confidence interval for the population.  

If you have not yet fully completed the survey and are gynecological oncology practitioner who cares ovarian cancer patients, we urge you to participate in the study here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/US-Project-GEOCC

Key items of the study include:

  • use of national or international guidelines to inform ovarian cancer treatment recommendations
  • availability of quality registries
  • availability of multidisciplinary regional network agreements
  • availability of surgical training programs
  • utilization of surgical goals and documentation

Objectives of the study:

  • Knowing what resources are available and guidelines in place is extremely important to identify disparities in novel biologics and inform drug development for underserved areas.
  • Gathering data about key populations will ultimately help us inform the future of ovarian cancer clinical trial development in underserved communities.

The estimated time to complete the survey is 10-20 minutes.

Thank you for your time participating in this important international study which will remain open until June 15. Please feel free to forward this survey link to your colleagues and relevant networks of gynecologic oncology clinicians.
