ANZGOG – Australia New Zealand Gynaecological Oncology Group

ANZGOG – Improving life for women with gynaecological cancer through research.  We are the peak, national gynaecological cancer clinical trials organisation for Australia and New Zealand.

Our purpose is to improve outcomes and quality of life for women with gynaecological cancer through conducting and promoting cooperative clinical trials and undertaking multidisciplinary research into the causes, prevention and treatments of gynaecological cancer.

WomenCan – Funding Cancer Research is ANZGOG’s public fundraising campaign.

ANZGOG encourages support for their research programs; 

OASIS – The Ovarian cancer Alliance for SIgnal-Seeking clinical trials is a powerful collaborative effort of internationally-recognised laboratory and clinical researchers, patients and advocates, brought together to advance innovative, targeted clinical trials for defined subsets of ovarian cancer patients.

Fund For New Research – The Fund for New Research promotes the development of investigator-led studies from initial concept to full study.  Grants of $50k, $30k or $20k are awarded to gynaecological cancer researchers to pursue innovative concepts that may lead to a future ANZGOG study.  

Women are the beneficiaries of our research.  ANZGOG has approximately 1000 members working in the gynaecological cancer sector.  Members collaborate to share expertise and innovative research concepts that can validate new clinical treatments and improve quality of life for their patients and for all women who might be diagnosed today and into the future.
