The GOG Foundation and EVA/LACOG partnership: a collaborative strategic alliance for clinical trial execution.

The collaborative efforts between GOG and LACOG are aimed at advancing clinical oncology research through strategic global partnerships, particularly related to the conduct of clinical trials. Herein, we provide the framework of this relationship addressing key operational components including establishing a shared Publication Policy. In addition, this initiative seeks to standardize contributions, recognize authorship fairly, and ensure compliance with agreed protocols. Emphasis is placed on critical practices like study design, data interpretation, manuscript development, and intellectual review. The Policy considers the roles of individual scientists, institutional sponsors, and contributors while ensuring transparency and authenticity in scientific communication. This collaborative approach underscores the importance of collective expertise in addressing global challenges in oncology and fostering innovation through multi-institutional cooperation. The manuscript outlines the processes for critical review, approval, and publication, ensuring credibility in the dissemination of scientific findings to the community. These frameworks aim to promote inclusivity, equitable representation, and the advancement of oncology knowledge.
