Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue will advance our understanding and progress in the management of gynecological cancers, including ovarian, endometrial, cervical, vaginal, vulvar, and uterine cancers. This Special Issue will investigate the latest research on the etiology of these malignancies, uncovering the genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors that contribute to their emergence and progression. Diagnostic advancements, including biomarkers and imaging techniques, will be highlighted, to improve early detection and accurate staging.

Prognostic research focusing on factors such as tumor biology, molecular signatures, and patient characteristics will shed light on survival outcomes and treatment responses. This Special Issue will also present updates on therapeutic strategies, including advancements in chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy, and minimally invasive surgery, emphasizing personalized approaches that optimize outcomes while minimizing side effects.

Additionally, this Special Issue will cover cancer prevention efforts, examining the role of vaccines, lifestyle changes, and screening programs in reducing the incidence of gynecological cancers.

By providing a comprehensive overview of all these critical aspects in this Special Issue, we aim to inspire innovation and collaboration in the ongoing fight against gynecologic cancers.

We are excited to invite you to submit original research articles and reviews for inclusion in this Special Issue, with the aim of facilitating the prevention of gynecological cancers, and we look forward to receiving your contributions.
