Guide for Authors
Gynecologic Oncology, an international journal, is devoted to the publication of clinical and investigative articles that concern tumors of the female reproductive tract. We welcome the submission of investigations relating to the etiology, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of female cancers, as well as research from any of the disciplines related to this field of interest. Research areas include: cell and molecular biology, chemotherapy, clinical trails, epidemiology, genetics, immunology and vaccines, 'omics', pathology and cytology, quality of life, radiation therapy, surgery, and translational research. All aspects of scholarship related to tumors of this region are welcome, with originality, quality, and clarity the chief criteria of acceptance.
Gynecologic Oncology and Gynecologic Oncology Reports encourage submission of manuscripts that help understand, address or aim to eliminate health disparities, differences in health status, or access to healthcare based on race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, sex, gender identity or expression, religion, national origin, age, disability, marital status, or social determinants of health.
Types of articles
Research Paper: Full-length report of an original basic or clinical investigation.
Systematic Reviews and/or Meta-Analysis Articles: A comprehensive and scholarly review of the literature, which uses systematic searching techniques to identify, appraise and synthesize all relevant studies, relating to an important basic or clinical subject, accompanied by critical analysis and leading to reasonable conclusions.
Editorial: Commentary on an original article published in the same issue or an opinion or perspective on a specific topic.
Clinical Commentary: Offers perspective or opinion of clinical relevance.
Gynecologic Oncology Tumor Board: An in-depth discussion of a rare and/or difficult case. The Tumor Board presentation of the case should present a multi-disciplinary approach to the differential diagnosis, pathology (including molecular pathology), diagnostic testing and management, including a discussion of the decision-making regarding treatments and outcomes. Authors who wish to prepare a Gynecologic Oncology Tumor Board case must contact the Editorial Office (GYN@elsevier.com) in advance of preparation of the case to discuss their proposal with the Editors. Tumor board cases will have a maximum length of 5000 words, and are limited to 6 tables and/or figures and 60 references. A brief description of the case (limited to 50 words) is required.
Historical Perspective: Update and perspective on a seminal finding initially presented in an important paper that advanced the field of gynecologic oncology. Historical Perspective manuscripts should place the original paper in modern context and highlight the contributions that have been made to further or change the care and treatment of women's cancer. Authors who wish to prepare a Historical Perspective must contact the Editorial Office in advance to discuss their proposal with the Editors.
Mechanisms of Disease in Clinical Context:The goal for articles in this section is to present molecular or cellular mechanisms of action (e.g., a molecularly targeted drug) for gynecologic cancers and should be written for a clinical audience. It should cover the rationale, potential challenges, and translational potential for gynecologic cancers. Illustrations/figures are encouraged to convey a clear and effective message for the readers. Authors who wish to prepare a Mechanisms of Disease in Clinical Context paper must contact the Editorial Office (GYN@elsevier.com) in advance of preparation to discuss their proposal with the Editors. Mechanisms of Disease papers will have a maximum length of 3000 words, and are limited to 4 tables and/or figures and 50 references.
Please note that Gynecologic Oncology will no longer consider Surgical Film Submissions, Narrative Review articles or Letters to the Editor for publication. Surgical Film Submissions, Narrative Review articles and correspondence, including letters which comment upon work published in Gynecologic Oncology, will be considered for publication in the journal's companion title, Gynecologic Oncology Reports. Gynecologic Oncology Reports is an open access journal and a fee is required for publication.
Please also note that we do not consider revised resubmissions of previously rejected papers.

Clinical trial guidelines
We invite submission of all clinical trials, whether phase I, II, or III. For phase I trials, we especially encourage those of a novel substance for a novel indication, if there is a strong or unexpected beneficial or adverse response, or a novel mechanism of action. Systematic reviews of randomised trials also might warrant rapid peer review and publication. We encourage the registration of all interventional trials, whether early or late phase, in a primary register that participates in WHO's International Clinical Trial Registry Platform. We also encourage full public disclosure of the minimum 20-item trial registration dataset at the time of registration and before recruitment of the first participant (http://www.who.int/ictrp/en/). The registry must be independent of for-profit interest. Reports of randomised trials must conform to revised CONSORT guidelines, and should be submitted with their protocols. All reports of clinical trials must include a summary of previous research findings, and explain how this trial contributes to the sum of knowledge. The relation between existing and new evidence should be shown by direct reference to an existing systematic review and meta-analysis; if neither exists, authors are encouraged to do their own, or to describe the qualitative association between their research and previous findings.
• Cluster randomised trials must be reported according to CONSORT extended guidelines.
• Randomised trials that report harms must be described according to extended to extended CONSORT guidelines.
• Studies of diagnostic accuracy must be reported according to STARD guidelines.
• Systematic reviews must be written according to the Cochrane Collaboration guidelines.
• Observational studies (cohort, case-control, or cross-sectional designs) must be reported according to the STROBE statement.
Conflict of Interest
All authors are requested to disclose any actual or potential conflict of interest including any financial, personal or other relationships with other people or organizations within two years of beginning the submitted work that could inappropriately influence, or be perceived to influence, their work. See also https://www.elsevier.com/conflictsofinterest.
All authors must complete the conflict of interest form developed by the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors, which may be found here. The form is designed to be completed online and each and every author must complete a form. The conflict of interest form(s) must be uploaded to Editorial Manager by the corresponding author with the manuscript. If you experience an issue when trying to access the form, it could be linked to your browser. Please try right clicking on the above link to the form and selecting 'save target as'. You should then be able to save the form to your computer. The form is also available to download here.
If conflict of interest forms are not provided upon submission, your submission will be returned to you with a request that you provide forms for all authors. Your manuscript will not be considered for publication by editors or reviewers until all conflict of interest forms have been received. Please contact the Editorial Office at GYN@elsevier.com if you have any difficulty completing the form.
Role of medical writer or editor
If a medical writer or editor was involved in the creation of your manuscript, we need a signed statement from the corresponding author to include their name and information about funding of this person. This information should be added to the Acknowledgement section. We also require signed statements from any medical writers or editors declaring that they have given permission to be names as an author; or in the Acknowledgments section.
Submission declaration and verification
Submission of an article implies that the work described has not been published previously (except in the form of an abstract, a published lecture or academic thesis, see 'Multiple, redundant or concurrent publication' for more information), that it is not under consideration for publication elsewhere, that its publication is approved by all authors and tacitly or explicitly by the responsible authorities where the work was carried out, and that, if accepted, it will not be published elsewhere in the same form, in English or in any other language, including electronically without the written consent of the copyright-holder. To verify originality, your article may be checked by the originality detection service Crossref Similarity Check.
Preprints
Please note that preprints can be shared anywhere at any time, in line with Elsevier's sharing policy. Sharing your preprints e.g. on a preprint server will not count as prior publication (see 'Multiple, redundant or concurrent publication' for more information).
Use of inclusive language
Inclusive language acknowledges diversity, conveys respect to all people, is sensitive to differences, and promotes equal opportunities. Content should make no assumptions about the beliefs or commitments of any reader; contain nothing which might imply that one individual is superior to another on the grounds of age, gender, race, ethnicity, culture, sexual orientation, disability or health condition; and use inclusive language throughout. Authors should ensure that writing is free from bias, stereotypes, slang, reference to dominant culture and/or cultural assumptions. We advise to seek gender neutrality by using plural nouns ("clinicians, patients/clients") as default/wherever possible to avoid using "he, she," or "he/she." We recommend avoiding the use of descriptors that refer to personal attributes such as age, gender, race, ethnicity, culture, sexual orientation, disability or health condition unless they are relevant and valid. These guidelines are meant as a point of reference to help identify appropriate language but are by no means exhaustive or definitive.
Please include an Author Contribution section within your manuscript source file, above the references. This should include each author's contribution to the manuscript.
Author contributions
For transparency, we encourage authors to submit an author statement file outlining their individual contributions to the paper using the relevant CRediT roles: Conceptualization; Data curation; Formal analysis; Funding acquisition; Investigation; Methodology; Project administration; Resources; Software; Supervision; Validation; Visualization; Roles/Writing - original draft; Writing - review & editing. Authorship statements should be formatted with the names of authors first and CRediT role(s) following. More details and an example
Changes to authorship
Authors are expected to consider carefully the list and order of authors before submitting their manuscript and provide the definitive list of authors at the time of the original submission. Any addition, deletion or rearrangement of author names in the authorship list should be made only before the manuscript has been accepted and only if approved by the journal Editor. To request such a change, the Editor must receive the following from the corresponding author: (a) the reason for the change in author list and (b) written confirmation (e-mail, letter) from all authors that they agree with the addition, removal or rearrangement. In the case of addition or removal of authors, this includes confirmation from the author being added or removed.
Only in exceptional circumstances will the Editor consider the addition, deletion or rearrangement of authors after the manuscript has been accepted. While the Editor considers the request, publication of the manuscript will be suspended. If the manuscript has already been published in an online issue, any requests approved by the Editor will result in a corrigendum.
Article transfer service
This journal is part of our Article Transfer Service. This means that if the Editor feels your article is more suitable in one of our other participating journals, then you may be asked to consider transferring the article to one of those. If you agree, your article will be transferred automatically on your behalf with no need to reformat. Please note that your article will be reviewed again by the new journal. More information.
Copyright
Upon acceptance of an article, authors will be asked to complete a 'Journal Publishing Agreement' (see more information on this). An e-mail will be sent to the corresponding author confirming receipt of the manuscript together with a 'Journal Publishing Agreement' form or a link to the online version of this agreement.
Subscribers may reproduce tables of contents or prepare lists of articles including abstracts for internal circulation within their institutions. Permission of the Publisher is required for resale or distribution outside the institution and for all other derivative works, including compilations and translations. If excerpts from other copyrighted works are included, the author(s) must obtain written permission from the copyright owners and credit the source(s) in the article. Elsevier has preprinted forms for use by authors in these cases.

Submission
Submission to this journal proceeds totally online. Use the following guidelines to prepare your article. Via the homepage of this journal (https://www.elsevier.com/journals) you will be guided stepwise through the creation and uploading of the various files. The system automatically converts source files to a single Adobe Acrobat PDF version of the article, which is used in the peer-review process. Please note that even though manuscript source files are converted to PDF at submission for the review process, these source files are needed for further processing after acceptance. All correspondence, including notification of the Editor's decision and requests for revision, takes place by e-mail and via the author's homepage, removing the need for a hard-copy paper trail.
It is a condition of publication that all manuscripts must be written in clear, grammatical English and be submitted to the Gynecologic Oncology Web site at https://www.editorialmanager.com/ygyno/default.aspx. Authors are requested to transmit the text and art of the manuscript in electronic form to this address. Each manuscript must also be accompanied by a cover letter. (Please see Preparation of Manuscript below.) If you are unable to provide an electronic version, please contact the editorial office prior to submission by e-mail (gyn@elsevier.com).
Manuscripts are accepted for review with the understanding that no substantial portion of the study has been published or is under consideration for publication elsewhere and that its submission for publication has been approved by all of the authors and by the institution where the work was carried out. Authors must disclose prior presentation at a public scientific meeting as a footnote on the title page.
Manuscripts that do not meet the general criteria or standards for publication in Gynecologic Oncology will be immediately returned to the authors, without detailed review.

NEW SUBMISSIONS
Submission to this journal proceeds totally online and you will be guided stepwise through the creation and uploading of your files. The system automatically converts your files to a single PDF file, which is used in the peer-review process.
As part of the Your Paper Your Way service, you may choose to submit your manuscript as a single file to be used in the refereeing process. This can be a PDF file or a Word document, in any format or lay-out that can be used by referees to evaluate your manuscript. It should contain high enough quality figures for refereeing. If you prefer to do so, you may still provide all or some of the source files at the initial submission. Please note that individual figure files larger than 10 MB must be uploaded separately.
References
There are no strict requirements on reference formatting at submission. References can be in any style or format as long as the style is consistent. Where applicable, author(s) name(s), journal title/book title, chapter title/article title, year of publication, volume number/book chapter and the article number or pagination must be present. Use of DOI is highly encouraged. The reference style used by the journal will be applied to the accepted article by Elsevier at the proof stage. Note that missing data will be highlighted at proof stage for the author to correct.
Formatting requirements
There are no strict formatting requirements but all manuscripts must contain the essential elements needed to convey your manuscript, for example Abstract, Keywords, Introduction, Materials and Methods, Results, Conclusions, Artwork and Tables with Captions.
If your article includes any Videos and/or other Supplementary material, this should be included in your initial submission for peer review purposes.
Divide the article into clearly defined sections.
Line Numbering
Please ensure your paper has consecutive line numbering ? this is an essential peer review requirement.
Figures and tables embedded in text
Please ensure the figures and the tables included in the single file are placed next to the relevant text in the manuscript, rather than at the bottom or the top of the file. The corresponding caption should be placed directly below the figure or table.
Peer review
This journal operates a single anonymized review process. All contributions will be initially assessed by the editor for suitability for the journal. Papers deemed suitable are then typically sent to a minimum of two independent expert reviewers to assess the scientific quality of the paper. The Editor is responsible for the final decision regarding acceptance or rejection of articles. The Editor's decision is final. Editors are not involved in decisions about papers which they have written themselves or have been written by family members or colleagues or which relate to products or services in which the editor has an interest. Any such submission is subject to all of the journal's usual procedures, with peer review handled independently of the relevant editor and their research groups. More information on types of peer review.
REVISED SUBMISSIONS
Use of word processing software
Regardless of the file format of the original submission, at revision you must provide us with an editable file of the entire article. Keep the layout of the text as simple as possible. Most formatting codes will be removed and replaced on processing the article. The electronic text should be prepared in a way very similar to that of conventional manuscripts (see also the Guide to Publishing with Elsevier). See also the section on Electronic artwork.
To avoid unnecessary errors you are strongly advised to use the 'spell-check' and 'grammar-check' functions of your word processor.
