Abstract:
Projected increases in cases and deaths from ovarian
cancer are due to hit developing countries hardest
by 2040, yet many of them lack sufficient data to
advocate and drive effective change to deal with
this challenging disease. This novel collaboration
brings together advocates and clinical teams from 24
low- and middle-income countries, with the World
Ovarian Cancer Coalition and the International
Gynecologic Cancer Society to show the experience
of women being treated at hospitals in these
locations, as a way of identifying local, national and
global priorities for action.
