RALEIGH, N.C., May 13, 2025 – Carebox Healthcare Solutions, the leader in clinical trial patient engagement, today announced that the Ovarian Cancer Project, a nonprofit dedicated to educating to the symptoms and risks of ovarian and all gynecologic cancers and support has joined the Carebox Connect Network. This collaboration provides patients, caregivers, and healthcare professionals an easy way to find and pre-qualify for relevant gynecological cancer clinical trials.
Gynecologic cancers, including ovarian cancer, pose significant challenges due to their often late-stage diagnosis and limited treatment options. Ovarian cancer alone claims over 13,000 lives annually in the United States, with more than 19,000 new cases diagnosed each year. Early detection remains elusive, and treatment advancements rely heavily on clinical research. This partnership addresses these challenges by leveraging Carebox's powerful trial-matching capabilities and The Ovarian Cancer Project's extensive community network.
“For too many gynecologic cancer patients, accessing clinical trials feels like navigating a maze. Our collaboration with Carebox allows us to simplify that journey, ensuring our community has access to the latest treatment innovations. Moreover, it aligns with our mission to educate women about the symptoms and risks of gynecologic cancers, empowering them to take charge of their health.”
Marianne Hoover
Executive Director of the Ovarian Cancer Project
"We are honored to support the Ovarian Cancer Project and the women facing these devastating diagnoses," added Cara Bruzzi, Director of Services at Carebox. "By expanding access to clinical trials, we are helping connect patients to treatments that may improve their outcomes and quality of life. Our platform has successfully matched thousands of patients with gynecologic cancers to relevant trials, and we look forward to continuing this work."

About Carebox
Carebox connects patients and physicians seeking treatment options with clinical trials. For patients and families, access to information about the newest and most advanced treatment options is obscured and frustrating to find. For pharma companies, clinical trial recruitment is the primary bottleneck in the $100B+ drug development market now being reshaped by precision medicine treatment specificity, new trial models, diversity requirements, and digital health consumer expectations. Carebox is at the forefront of addressing these challenges for patients and their families, as well as for the ecosystem of companies involved in sponsoring, running, and recruiting for clinical trials.
