Marathon of Hope Cancer Centres Network Study for Ontario (MOHCCN-O)
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The Marathon of Hope Cancer Centres Network (MOHCCN) is a national network of cancer centres that pursue collaborative cancer research in precision medicine (an emerging approach for disease treatment and prevention that considers individual variability in DNA, environment and lifestyle) to accelerate the discovery of innovations and improve the health outcomes for cancer patients

Detailed Description
The purpose of this study is to use evolving technologies such as genomics and artificial intelligence to study cancer so that the right treatment can be given to the right patient, at the right time. Approximately 15,000 participants will take part in the greater MOHCCN study across Canada in the first 5 years, and ultimately the goal is to enroll up to 100,000 over next 10 years.

---|---|
MOHCCN-O Tumor tissue and blood samples will be collected from patients who are enrolled in this study but do not yet have the molecular profiling data that are required to meet the gold standard criteria. Data will include: pathology, clinical biomarkers, imaging diagnostic information, whole genome and epi-genome sequencing of tumor and normal tissues, immunoprofiling of tumor tissues and/or peripheral blood, bioinformatic annotation of molecular information, and longitudinal clinical and outcome data. |
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Number of patients included in a pan-Canadian cohort with comprehensive clinical and genomic data [5 years]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Development of standard practices to create a unique shareable dataset of molecular, imaging, clinical and health outcome information on Canadian cancer cases [5 years]
- Clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of precision cancer medicine to advance clinical implementation and reimbursement decisions [5 years]
Health technology assessment tools will be used to evaluate the real-world value of precision medicine
- Development and collection of patient-reported outcomes to enhance patient-centeredness in precision cancer medicine [5 years]
Health technology assessment tools will be used to evaluate the real-world value of precision medicine
