Hormone drug type makes survival difference in advanced breast cancer
Aromatase inhibitors, a type of hormone therapy used to treat advanced breast cancer in postmenopausal women, result in a small but significant increase in overall survival when compared to other hormone treatments, according to a new systematic review of studies. (2007-01-31)
Two new studies reveal benefits of laparoscopic surgery for uterine cancer
In a pair of studies presented today at the Society of Gynecologic Oncologists 37th Annual Meeting on Women's Cancer, researchers have found in a large randomized trial of laparoscopy versus laparotomy for surgical treatment of uterine (endometrial) cancer that laparoscopy is safe, and when successfully completed reduces hospital stay by 50 percent, and contributes to a better quality of life from the patient's perspective.

Studies find no evidence that estrogens in soy increase uterine cancer risk
Studies in monkeys and women suggest that unlike traditional estrogen therapy, a diet high in the natural plant estrogens found in soy does not increase the risk of uterine cancer in postmenopausal women. (2005-11-03)
Yale procedure cuts recurrence of aggressive uterine cancer
A state-of-the-art treatment program developed at Yale School of Medicine increases survival from the aggressive uterine papillary serous carcinoma (UPSC) and spares some patients the need for additional therapy. (2005-09-22)
Detection of glycoprotein could identify ovarian and uterine cancers with poor prognosis (p 865)
Issue 13 September 2003 Embargoed 0001 h (London time) 12 September 2003. The detection of a specific protein molecule could help oncologists identify uterine and ovarian cancers with poor prognosis and thereby enable better disease management of women with aggressive uterine or ovarian cancer, suggest authors of a study in this week's issue of THE LANCET. Ovarian and uterine cancer is the most common cause of death from cancer-related deaths for women with gynaecological malignant disease. The prognosis for women with uterine cancer is usually better than for women with ovarian cancer; however some women will develop aggressive tumours in either disease which increases the risk of death.
