Uterine Lavage to Detect Ovarian Cancer Risk

In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This clinical trial develops a non-surgical approach using uterine lavage samples to screen for progression to ovarian cancer in high-risk patients carrying BRCA mutations. Women with inherited mutations in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes (BRCA carriers) have a much higher lifetime risk of developing ovarian cancer. Currently there are no effective ovarian cancer screening or early detection tests for BRCA carriers. Uterine lavage is a procedure that uses saline to rinse and collect cells from the fallopian tube. Molecular analysis of these samples may help proactively detect genetic alterations that are indicative of progression to ovarian cancer in women with BRCA mutations.
