Gynecological Cancer Care

If you or someone you know has been diagnosed with gynecological cancer, it is important to seek medical care right away. The type of treatment offered will depend on the type and stage of the cancer. Some treatments may include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or immunotherapy.

Community Clinical Trials works with gynecologic oncologists and pharmaceutical companies to provide patients with leading cancer treatments as well as clinical trials. We work with leading organizations and professionals in multidisciplinary settings to provide the best possible cancer care. We formulate a comprehensive treatment plan that considers each patient’s needs and preferences.

What Is Gynecological Cancer?

People with gynecological cancers have cancer cells in parts of their reproductive system. Women are most at risk for this type of cancer although men can also be affected.

The five main types of gynecological cancers are cervical cancer, uterine (endometrial) cancer, ovarian cancer, vaginal cancer, and vulvar cancer. While anyone can develop gynecological cancer, certain risk factors may increase one's chances. These risks include age, family history of gynecological cancers, obesity, smoking, and using oral contraceptives for a long period.

Within our practice in Houston, we provide personalized treatment and care to people with gynecological cancers. We help patients understand the treatments available while ensuring they receive the best options for their needs.
