Urologic and gynaecologic cancer express the enzyme which are at the origin of PGE2: cyclooxygenase 2. Cox2 inhibitors present anticancer properties demonstrated in wide varieties of cellular and animal models. Human applications are currently tested in many clinical trials for bladder, prostate and uterine carcinomas.
