The challenges we face
Of women with ovarian cancer will survive more than five years from diagnosis
Different subtypes make ovarian cancer a complex disease
More women will face ovarian cancer in our region over the next 25 years.
Karyn’s story is why research matters
After six months of symptoms, Karyn received a devastating diagnosis: stage 3C ovarian cancer. Her story is not unique—too many women are diagnosed late, when treatment options are limited, and survival rates remain far too low.
But it doesn’t have to stay this way. With more investment in research, we can catch up to the progress seen in other cancer types and change outcomes for women like Karyn and those to come.
