Description: (Applicant's Description) Understanding the basic biology and pathophysiology of neoplasms of the female reproductive tract is crucial to the development of strategies for diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of these cancers. Included in this group of neoplasms are cancer of the ovary, uterus, cervix, vagina, and vulva. Recent advances in molecular biology, genetics, and epidemiology show great promise that investigations in these areas will translate into improvement in human health. In the Gynecologic Oncology Program the expertise of basic scientists, clinical investigators, clinical gynecologic oncologists, epidemiologists, and pathologists with particular interests in cancers of the female reproductive tract is being utilized to develop strategies for the diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and understanding of the basic biology, pathophysiology, and epidemiology of these cancers. The current principal Program foci are cancers of the ovary and cervix.

描述：(申请人描述)了解女性生殖道肿瘤的基本生物学和病理生理学对于制定诊断、预防和治疗这些癌症的策略至关重要。这组肿瘤包括卵巢癌、子宫癌、子宫颈癌、阴道癌和外阴癌。分子生物学、遗传学和流行病学的最新进展表明，这些领域的研究将转化为人类健康的改善。在妇科肿瘤学计划中，正在利用基础科学家、临床研究人员、临床妇科肿瘤学家、流行病学家和对女性生殖道癌特别感兴趣的病理学家的专业知识来制定战略，以诊断、治疗、预防和了解这些癌症的基本生物学、病理生理学和流行病学。目前的主要规划重点是卵巢癌和子宫颈癌。
