00:00There are about 6,000 new diagnoses of ovarian cancer every year in Italy, compared to the past.
00:09We live more and we would like to live better.
00:12Acto Italia, an alliance against ovarian cancer, sponsored the Cambiamo Rotta project,
00:17the first white book illustrated in the voice of the needs and proposals of women affected by this neoplasia.
00:22Presented before the Ministry of Health, Cambiamo Rotta has made a breakthrough in Campania and now also in Veneto,
00:28with a meeting dedicated to women with ovarian cancer and their healthy families.
00:32With Acto Triveneto we try to stand by these very fragile women,
00:38trying to create projects with laboratories dedicated to them,
00:46to get them out of the house.
00:48We help each other because we are all equal.
00:52Among the themes at the center of the Cambiamo Rotta Triveneto stage is the importance of genetic counseling.
00:57At the Ca' Foncello hospital in Treviso, since 2023,
01:01it has been activating a path for healthy people affected by genetic mutations BRCA1 and BRCA2,
01:06detected through genetic testing.
01:09The options can be surgical, that is, a healthy organ is removed before it is damaged,
01:15or they can adhere to a surveillance protocol.
01:18The Cambiamo Rotta initiative enjoys the unconditional support of GSK.
01:23It is important to be part of this path that wants to contribute to improve the quality of life
01:30and, in general, the management of women who today live with ovarian cancer.
