Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The rising global incidence of endometrial cancer means that more women than ever are living with and, unfortunately, also dying from this disease. Whilst surgery in combination with radio- and chemotherapy has long been the cornerstone of endometrial cancer treatment, increasing knowledge of endometrial cancer biology has ensured the success of fertility-sparing approaches and enabled the personalisation of care. The molecular characterisation of tumours and clinical trials of immunotherapies are set to revolutionise how we manage the disease as we move towards improving disease control whilst minimising the side effects of treatment.
This Special Issue aims to highlight recent advances in the prevention, early diagnosis, and treatment of early and advanced/recurrent endometrial cancer and to answer any outstanding research questions. Both original research articles and review papers are welcome to be submitted to this Special Issue.
Dr. Sarah J. Kitson
Guest Editor
