Expanded Research and Education for Endometrial Cancer

This act aims to boost research into endometrial cancer and enhance public education about it. It focuses on reducing disparities in diagnosis and treatment, especially among African-American women, potentially leading to earlier detection and better treatment outcomes for all women.
Key points
Expand endometrial cancer research by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), including studies on disparities in incidence and mortality.
Establish a public education program on endometrial cancer by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), with materials specifically for African-American women.
Ensure appropriate representation of African-American women in NIH-supported clinical trials for endometrial cancer, proportional to their incidence rates.
Authorize funding for these initiatives for fiscal years 2026 through 2028.
