CancerGRID
The Goal of CancerGRID (A consortium to develop open standards for clinical cancer informatics) is to use a modular approach to provide solutions for “simple” problems using gridbased informatics:
1. Develop a template for e-clinical trials using, as a exemplar, a new
translational breast study (neoTANGO);
2. Link existing clinical trial data and cancer genetic epidemiology data
with molecular profiling information
obtained in paraffin-embedded tumour samples;
3. Use GRID-enabled collaborative tools to manage clinical trials.
