<br>

### 1) Oncology research

- Enabling
- Conducting

- A shared, international oncology data standard
- Support of observational, claims and curated data sources

### 3) Community growth

- Model adoption and growth of network
- Data holders, developers, and subject matter experts

# **Notable Challenges**

<br>

### 1) Oncology data in OMOP

- OMOP typically a person-centric model
- Oncology data often requires additional levels of detail
- e.g., "Observations about observations"
- Novel entity relationships in source data


<br>



### 2) Source data representations

- Differing granularity and detail between data sources
- Goal of maximum accommodation while maintaing FAIR principles
- Sources include observational, claims and curated data
- Sources often overlap and can provide complementary data for same patient population
