NCI Resource Connects Childhood Cancer Data in New Ways

Wednesday, November 13, 2024

The National Childhood Cancer Registry (NCCR) Data Platform is the nation’s first resource that links childhood, adolescent, and young adult records across population-based cancer registries and real-world data partners. Created by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Childhood Cancer Data Initiative (CCDI), this user-friendly platform connects social drivers of health, pharmacy claims, and medical claims data, along with data from organizations like the Children’s Oncology Group, with plans to add more data resources in the future. 

By sharing and linking these data, NCI aims to enhance researchers’ abilities to develop cohorts of interest, expand the scope of existing data, and drive new discovery. 

Explore the Data Platform or forward the link to your colleagues! Questions about CCDI or the NCCR Data Platform? Email [email protected].
