March 2022 is Ovarian And Prostate Cancer Awareness Month and at Frontiers in Endocrinology we want to highlight the recent discoveries in the field and raise awareness of the importance of early diagnosis of these cancers.
Ovarian cancer ranks fifth in cancer death among women, with a woman’s risk of being diagnosed of ovarian cancer being 1 out of 78. 1 out of 8 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer during his lifetime, making this the most common cancer and second leading cause of cancer among men. In both cases, early detection and diagnosis allow for more treatment options, increasing the chances of survival.
It is in this spirit that Frontiers is launching a new article collection to coincide with this Awareness Month. This occasion not only offers an opportunity to acknowledge Ovarian and Prostate Cancer, but also to consider the importance of new research towards innovative diagnosis and treatment options.
This Frontiers in Endocrinology Research Topic aims to address the Cancer Endocrinology-specific dimensions of this Awareness Month, highlighting the importance of Ovarian And Prostate Cancer research and considering how to improve early diagnosis and treatment options.
