Data warehousing is the most important technology to address recent advances in precision medicine. However, a generic clinical data warehouse does not address unstructured and insufficient data. In precision medicine, it is essential to develop a platform that can collect and utilize data. Data were collected from electronic medical records, genomic sequences, tumor biopsy specimens, and national cancer control initiative databases in the National Cancer Center (NCC), Korea. Data were de-identified and stored in a safe and independent space. Unstructured clinical data were standardized and incorporated into cancer registries and linked to cancer genome sequences and tumor biopsy specimens. Finally, national cancer control initiative data from the public domain were independently organized and linked to cancer registries. We constructed a system for integrating and providing various cancer data called the Korea Cancer Big Data Platform (K-CBP). Although the K-CBP could be used for cancer research, the legal and regulatory aspects of data distribution and usage need to be addressed first. Nonetheless, the system will continue collecting data from cancer-related resources that will hopefully facilitate precision-based research.

RxNorm (tool)

RRID:SCR_006645

Ontology that provides a normalized naming system for generic and branded drugs and a tool for supporting semantic interoperation between drug terminologies and pharmacy knowledge base systems. It contains the names of prescription and many over-the-counter drugs available in the United States and links its names to many of the drug vocabularies commonly used in pharmacy management and drug interaction software. It can mediate messages between systems not using the same software and vocabulary. * RxNorm Download Files - contain data consistent with the 2013AB UMLS Metathesaurus Release Files. * RxNorm API - web service for accessing the current RxNorm data set. * RxNorm Browser (RxNav) - a browser for several drug information sources, including RxNorm, RxTerms and National Drug File - Reference Terminology (NDF-RT) . * Current Prescribable Content - subset of currently prescribable drugs found in RxNorm. * RxTerms Drug Interface Terminology - a drug interface terminology derived from RxNorm for prescription writing or medication history recording
