GYN-852760 - Adjuvant Proton Whole Pelvis Radiation Therapy for Treatment of Post-Surgical Gynecologic Cancers

This is a Phase II, single-arm study, using Whole Pelvis (WP) Pencil Beam Scanning Proton Radiation (PBS PRT) in the post-surgical, adjuvant setting for definitive treatment of gynecologic cancers. The purpose of this study is to estimate rate of acute clinician-reported gastrointestinal (GI) toxicity using WP PBS PRT in the definitive treatment of gynecologic cancers in the post-surgical, adjuvant setting.

NRG-CC008

NRG-CC008, A Non-Randomized Prospective Clinical Trial Comparing the Non-Inferiority of Salpingectomy to Salpingo-oophorectomy to Reduce the Risk of Ovarian Cancer Among BRCA1 Carriers [SOROCk] (NCT # 04251052)

This clinical trial evaluates how well two surgical procedures (bilateral salpingectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy) work in reducing the risk of ovarian cancer for individuals with BRCA1 mutations. Participants will choose which surgery. Bilateral salpingectomy involves the surgical removal of fallopian tubes, and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy involves the surgical removal of both the fallopian tubes and ovaries. This study may help doctors determine if the two surgical procedures are nearly the same for ovarian cancer risk reduction for women with BRCA1 mutations.
Participants will also be asked to complete a series of questionnaires to evaluate health, stress levels, sexual function, hormonal symptoms and menopausal symptoms. The questionnaires will be completed before surgery (baseline), 6 months after surgery, 12 months after surgery, and annually thereafter.
