Women's Cancers
WHAT IF WE COULD PREVENT THE RECURRENCE OF OVARIAN CANCER? OR PROVIDE A TARGETED, NON-INVASIVE TREATMENT FOR BREAST CANCER?
Sounds incredible, right? But we are making tremendous strides in the detection, treatment, and prevention of women’s cancers — including breakthrough therapies for breast, ovarian, and cervical cancers that are in large-scale clinical trials right now.
We are giving women with ovarian cancer new hope.

For Betty to be acknowledged as a generous spirit that will continue to impact future lives for time to come is very honorable; what a legacy to leave to the world!
We need to be advocating for them as much as we advocate for ourselves. We can play a very important role in men’s health.
My breast cancer journey has brought me to this place, and I’m grateful. I’m grateful to be making a difference.
Spotlight on: BREAST CANCER
Challenges
One in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime.
When detected early, nearly all breast cancers are curable. However, in too many cases, screening, treatment, and prevention happen too late.
WHAT MAGEE-WOMENS SCIENTISTS ARE DOING
- We are uncovering new prevention and treatment approaches in more than 20 clinical trials.
- We are making strides in the detection, treatment, and prevention of women’s cancers.
- We are working to solve treatment resistance in the most common form of breast cancer.
- We are examining the vulnerabilities in triple negative breast cancer to find a more effective cure for this aggressive disease.
Clinical Research & Trials
For over two decades, we have dedicated our clinical research studies and clinical trials to improving the health care of women, men, and infants everywhere. Our research would not be possible without the generous participation of many study volunteers.

“We think by using human tissue around the tumor in a mouse, that will change the paradigm of how we screen drugs. When you grow a human tumor in human tissue, it is much more resistant to most of those therapies.”
