The OMCAT-register (www.omcat-register.com) will begin in 2020. Aim of the “One Million Cancer Treatment Months”-Register is to develop a big-data, deep-learning-based system for incident prediction using leading indicators (such as precursors of instability) developed specifically for CANKADO. Here, “incidents” represent unfavorable situations, such as a severe adverse events or worsening of the disease. The next generation of CANKADO is designed to predict impending incident threats at an earlier stage than previously feasible and — by more timely intervention — help physicians to eliminate or mitigate the severity of an unfavorable event, reduce the required intensity of countermeasures, or otherwise reduce patient risks. It will also enable a more focused utilization of resources based on better risk identification.
Any cancer patient under treatment using PRO-React or one of the Companion-APP can be enrolled. Patients will be monitored for six months. During this time, physicians have to document all incidents of interest.
The register is designed for a multi-lingual, multi-national implementation.
