Nudge to Gynecologic Oncology

Nudge to Referral of Adnexal Masses to Gynecologic Oncology

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 2 Nov 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Ovarian cancer lacks an effective screening test, and prompt treatment at diagnosis is the only way to improve outcomes. Referral to gynecologic oncology at diagnosis of adnexal mass is recommend by guidelines from every major medical organization. Yet, 1 in 4 patients with ovarian cancer nationwide and at Penn Medicine never see a gynecologic oncologist. Even when referred to gynecologic oncology, patients from historically-marginalized groups have twice as long duration from diagnosis to seeing gynecologic oncology. In this project, the investigators will pilot a clinician nudge to gynecologic oncology referral and compare the impact to historical controls.
