# Other Cancer Types

EGCG is the main catechin in green tea, and the research extends well beyond the better-developed breast, pancreatic, colorectal, lung, prostate, blood, and oral cancer literature.

### Additional areas with evidence or active interest

* **Ovarian cancer** — apoptosis, oxidative stress, and invasion-related findings
* **Gastric and upper GI cancers** — green tea epidemiology and local mucosal relevance
* **Liver cancer** — metabolic and inflammatory relevance, though less built out than some other topics
* **Hormone-sensitive and gastrointestinal settings more broadly** — often appear in epidemiological and review literature

### Practical interpretation

These areas are important but currently sit behind the stronger headline EGCG cancer types. They are best treated as secondary evidence zones rather than the lead clinical cases.
