The IGCS Early Career Network (ECN) is
proud to announce an emerging collaboration with the Gynecologic Cancer InterGroup (GCIG) to advance pragmatic clinical trials with the potential to build the next generation of global oncology leaders.
Pragmatic research initiatives bring fresh perspectives, resource adaptability, and the opportunity to use innovative trial designs reflecting diverse real-world practice, providing collaborative opportunities for contributors from the IGCS Early Career Network.
By partnering with GCIG, we have a more inclusive global representation, which will enhance knowledge exchange, foster mentorship, and expand access to diverse patient populations and care settings—critical elements for the success and generalizability of pragmatic trials.

Opportunity to submit a new pragmatic trail concept for consideration at the ECN Workshop in Montreal
More information is coming soon.
We hope that this platform will provide tools to facilitate pragmatic trial design, data collection in real-world settings, and cross-border collaboration, as well as an opportunity for early-career investigators to engage directly with senior leaders, share ideas, and develop practical skills that translate into active trial participation.
Ultimately, this partnership not only accelerates the development and implementation of impactful pragmatic trials but also invests in a sustainable pipeline of skilled researchers committed to improving global cancer care.
