Project Manager

About the Role

Gynae-oncology Trials Group UK (GTG-UK) is a national clinical research group specialising in ovarian, endometrial, cervical and vulval cancer trials. Our goal is to improve gynaecological cancer outcomes for patients across the UK through:

• Clinical trials
• International collaboration
• Early Career researcher development
• Patient, public and charitable involvement

The National Cancer Research Institute (NCRI) closed in June 2023, after over 20 years, leaving a huge gap in the co-ordination of cancer research across the UK. GTG-UK was formed to maintain the functions of the former NCRI Gynaecological Group, as per a national directive, and to continue formally representing the UK gynae-oncology community within international groups, such as, European Network of Gynaecological Oncology Trials (ENGOT) and the Gynaecologic Cancer Intergroup (GCIG). GTG-UK also collaborates widely with other clinical trials groups and charities in the UK. GTG-UK is a registered charity (charity number: 1216641), for further information www.gtguk.co.uk.
