Therapy for Gynecologic Cancer

Prevention and early detection play a vital role in gynecological cancers. It is important to follow the HPV vaccination schedule, get regular screenings, and maintain a healthy lifestyle to prevent gynecological cancers. Therapy options vary depending on the specific type, stage, and individual situation, but may include these.

Through the continuous development of bioengineering methods, several companies focus on gynecological cancer drugs and therapy development.

• Roche has developed drugs such as Avastin (bevacizumab), which is used in cervical, ovarian, and fallopian tube cancers.
• Tesaro, Inc. has developed Zejula (niraparib), an oral PARP inhibitor approved for ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, and peritoneal cancer.
