Background to GTG-UK

  • 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 Gynaeoncology 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 would like to acknowledge the support of CRUK and UCL Cancer Trials Centre with the gynae-oncology cancer trials portfolio

  • GTG-UK is currently being set up as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO).
