Welcome to 2026 International Symposium of JGOG and EAGOT

 

We deeply appreciate your support for the Japanese Gynecologic Oncology Group (JGOG), a leading nonprofit organization dedicated to clinical research in gynecologic malignancies, as well as the East Asian Gynecologic Oncology Trial Group (EAGOT).

 

It is our honor to host the 2026 International Symposium of JGOG and EAGOT from Friday, February 6 to Sunday, February 8, 2026, at NIKAI, Shinntora Yasuda Building (New‑Tora Yasuda Building, NIKAI). We recognize the great responsibility entrusted to us and are devoted to making this event truly meaningful.

 

About JGOG
Founded in 1981 by Prof. Kiichiro Noda as the Cervical Cancer Chemotherapy Study Group—later becoming the Gynecologic Chemotherapy Study Group in 1982—JGOG was officially certified as an NPO in 2002. Over the decades, it has grown into one of Japan’s largest clinical research networks, with 181 participating institutions and 1,046 members as of 2022. Our group has contributed numerous high‑quality clinical studies published in top medical journals, including Lancet Oncology and Journal of Clinical Oncology.

 

About EAGOT
EAGOT is a regional consortium uniting four major national clinical trial organizations—JGOG (Japan), KGOG (Korea), CGCS (China), and TGOG (Taiwan)—to advance the treatment of gynecologic cancers in East Asia. Since its inception in 2022, EAGOT has convened annual meetings focused on multinational clinical trials, translational research, and rare disease studies. The 2026 meeting will mark its fifth gathering.

 

2026 International Symposium of JGOG and EAGOT
At this symposium, researchers and clinicians from Japan and across East Asia will convene to share study results and engage in vibrant discussions. Through collaboration with your organization, we aim to accelerate ongoing clinical trials and launch new initiatives—endeavors we believe to be profoundly significant for advancing patient care.

We warmly invite you to join 2026 International Symposium of JGOG and EAGOT.
