The Challenge: To find a blood test that will allow all women to be screened for ovarian cancer and diagnosed while the disease is in its early stages.
At present there is no blood test to detect early stage ovarian cancer and no screening program.
The campaign will fund vital research into ovarian cancer, often called "The Silent Killer". Ovarian cancer is the most fatal gynaecological malignancy. One woman dies every 10 hours from this disease. 850 women die of ovarian cancer every year in Australia.
How will the funds be used?
GO Research Fund's commitment to the Ovarian Cancer Project, a collaboration between the Gynaecological Centre at the Royal Hospital for Women and the Cancer Research Program at the Garvan Institute of Medical Research. This brings together an internationally renowned treatment centre and an internationally renowned research centre.
Our research project is to develop a blood-based screening test to diagnose ovarian cancer while it is still confined to the ovaries
