About

Carien L. Creutzberg is a leading clinical researcher in radiation oncology, with a primary focus on gynecologic cancers, particularly endometrial cancer. Her landmark work includes the highly cited 2015 review "Endometrial cancer" (over 1,500 citations), which has become a foundational reference for understanding the disease's pathology, staging, and treatment paradigms. Creutzberg has been instrumental in shaping evidence-based radiotherapy protocols and improving outcomes for patients with endometrial malignancies. Beyond gynecologic oncology, she has made significant contributions to the study of survivorship, most notably through her 2014 paper on "Sexual dysfunction and infertility as late effects of cancer treatment" (over 220 citations). This work highlights her commitment to addressing the long-term quality-of-life consequences of cancer therapy, including nerve, vascular, and hormonal damage that affects a majority of pelvic cancer survivors. Her research bridges the gap between curative treatment and patient-centered survivorship care, making her a respected voice in both clinical oncology and late-effects research.
