The Pancreatic Cancer Collaborative Registry (PCCR) is a web-based system for collecting pancreatic cancer patient data. This infrastructure supports collaborative research for improved diagnosis, prevention, and treatment strategies.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Biomedical Informatics
  • Epidemiology

Background:

  • Pancreatic cancer research requires efficient and standardized data collection.
  • Existing data collection methods can be fragmented and lack uniformity.
  • A collaborative platform is needed to aggregate critical information and biological samples.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To establish a multi-institutional, web-based registry for pancreatic cancer data.
  • To facilitate the rapid and uniform collection of patient data and biospecimens.
  • To support the development of novel diagnostic, prevention, and treatment strategies for pancreatic cancer.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a multi-tier web application using Java/JSP and an Oracle 10g database.
  • Implementation of a "confederation model" to encourage broad institutional participation.

  • Standardized data collection with rigorous validation procedures and harmonized controlled vocabulary (NCIt, SNOMED-CT).
  • Main Results:

    • The Pancreatic Cancer Collaborative Registry (PCCR) is operational and includes data from over 2,700 patients and high-risk individuals.
    • Currently involves eight cancer centers across the USA and Italy.
    • Certified as a cancer Biomedical Informatics Grid (caBIG®) Bronze Compatible product.

    Conclusions:

    • The PCCR provides a robust foundation for collaborative pancreatic cancer research.
    • The infrastructure is designed for future evolution into a comprehensive biomedical computing platform.
    • Data from the PCCR can drive advancements in disease prognosis, risk assessment, and therapeutic interventions.
