International interview

Conversation on Screening

Video on ovarian abnormalities

Dr. Pavlik lectures on breast, colorectal, prostate, cervical and ovarian cancer screening in PHA/MI/MED616, Biology and Therapy of Cancer (3 lecture hrs; 3-6 credits as approved for individual departments). These lectures give a snapshot view of various screening approaches for different cancers and provide greater educational depth to trainees in nanotechnology methods of application.

Dr. Pavlik prepares and distributes In The Know, a monthly compilation of the latest significant literature in Gynecologic Oncology for the GYN ONC fellows which also gets distributed nationally and internationally. Requests to be on the email list to receive In The Know can be sent to him at epaul1@uky.edu

Research
The University of Kentucky Ovarian Screening Program provides the base for research by Gynecologic Oncology fellows, for Ob/GYN residents, for Summer Undergraduate Interns and for second year Medical Students taking Dr. Pavlik’s College of Medicine elective (OBG 825 001, Obstetrics & Gynecology Elective: Ovarian Cancer Research (3 credit hrs).
The University of Kentucky's Ovarian Screening Program is the largest and longest operating ovarian screening program in the United States. It has been in continuous operation since 1987. It is conducting the only ovarian cancer screening trial in the six states contiguous with Kentucky (Tennessee, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, West Virginia and Virginia). During the years 1987-2019, 48000+ women have received at least one TVS sonographic screening test with a total of over 320,000 free screens given. About 100+ new particpants join the screening program each month and ~15,000 screens are given annually. In February 2003, The University of Kentucky Ovarian Screening Program began an Outreach Effort that offers screening in Health Departments in Maysville, Prestonsburg, Elizabethtown, Paducah, and Somerset. Women from all 120 Kentucky counties participate in the screening program.

Current Research Goals of the Screening Program:

To prospectively evaluate the false positive (FP) rate of the screening algorithm for distinguishing benign ovarian structures from ovarian malignancies.
To assess the degree to which serial transvaginal ultrasonography identifies the fallopian tubes and changes in size and structure of the fallopian tubes.
To assess the degree to which serial transvaginal ultrasonography revises a single ultrasound by comparisons of subsequent ultrasonography to the initial abnormal sonography and defining the rate of resolution.
To assess the effect of serial transvaginal ultrasonography on the discovery of early stage disease regionally and state-wide and to determine if improvements in disease specific mortality occur as evidenced by lower deaths due to ovarian cancer in regions where screening participation is highest.
To assess the cost-effectiveness of ovarian screening and to examine risk of medical complications arising in the screening program.
To examine perceptions of well-being due to participation in ovarian cancer screening.
To determine the co-factors that contribute to successful annual ultrasound screening for ovarian cancer in a asymptomatic population.
To assess the expression & molecular signatures of STIC (serous tubal intraepithelial carcinoma) in serous carcinomas of the ovary, fallopian tube and endometrium.
